Kurt Campbell on Grand Strategy and US-China

Listen Later

Kurt Campbell is the Deputy Assistant to the President and the White House Coordinator for Indo-Pacific Affairs. ChinaTalk recently joined Campbell in Washington to discuss US-China relations and mark the podcast’s 300th episode.

We discuss:

  • The nature of national power today;
  • If China is peaking;
  • How ideology impacts Beijing’s foreign policy;
  • Campbell’s hopes and fears for the Biden administration’s Asia policy;
  • Whether the US is still aiming to “maintain as large of a lead as possible” on chips and AI;
  • How to think about the risk of and effectively deter military escalation;
  • And the dark shadow of Tiananmen and its lasting impact on Chinese politics and US foreign policy.
