Controversies and Financial Impact of APEC Summit

Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to discuss the major takeaways from Biden’s meeting with Xi Jinping on the sidelines of APEC. They then turn to Xi’s efforts to curry favor with US-business executives, and whether this could stem the tide of decoupling. Finally, they discuss the curious republishing of a 1972 Foreign Affairs article by Barbara Tuchman entitled, “If Mao Had Come to Washington,” and what this reveals about enduring misconceptions of China among the US foreign policy elite.
