The Debt Trap Diplomacy of PNG

In today's episode of The Wright Report, Bryan Dean Wright takes a deep dive into the strategic battle for influence between the US and China in the Pacific Ocean region, often referred to as Oceania. The 14 island nations that make up this region met recently in Papua New Guinea (PNG) to sign crucial deals and meet global leaders. However, President Joe Biden's last-minute withdrawal from the meeting due to the ongoing US debt ceiling crisis caused significant disappointment among the leaders. We'll explore the ramifications of this decision, the positions of these nations regarding the US or China, and the implications for potential future conflicts in the area.
