Introduction

This is a special two sessions edition of the Inside China Podcast. It's an historic day today as Xi Jinping officially begins an unprecedented third term as president of the People's Republic of China. In this episode, you're going to hear analysis of what was said earlier this week by China's newly appointed foreign minister Chin Gong. We'll also look at how China watches and analysts are saying about that for my colleague Kinling Lo. And our North American bureau chief Rob Delaney will give his take on responses from U.S. politicians in Washington.
