How does a former Brigadier General of the United States Air Force see Russia’s invasion of Ukraine? Why haven’t nations around the world sanctioned China yet, despite the apparent complicity? How does this war map on to China’s threat to Taiwan? And what is the prospect of a nuclear war in the future with Russia or China?
Today we sit down with Robert Spalding, former one-star General Officer in the USAF and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, to talk about China’s roles and interests in the war and how they are connected to the reactions of Western nations we’re witnessing today.
We also discuss the war’s implications for the current world order and the forthcoming choice facing nations under the military protection of the United States, yet maintain an economic partnership with China.
