Concerns with the Chinese Economy and the Centralization of Power

Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to discuss the overwhelming international diplomatic response to the 2024 Taiwanese election, and what this means for Taiwan's place on the global stage. They then turn to Chinese Premier Li Qiang's visit to Davos, where he attempted to woo elites with questionable economic figures. Finally, they cover a new study from the Committee to Protect Journalists, which ranks China as the worst country in the world because Beijing jails both citizen and professional journalists.
