In this week’s episode of China Insider, Miles Yu comments on the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict, and what impact this may have on China's strategic objectives for Iran and larger policy implications for regional relations in the Middle East. Next, Miles unpacks the latest news from the G7 Summit held in Canada as the member nations discuss China's non-market policies and unfair business practices. Lastly, we discuss the recent PLA Navy operation involving two aircraft carriers sailing east of the first island chain in the Indo-Pacific, and how the US and its allies may look to respond under the new strategic policy shift to deter Chinese maritime aggression.
