We open up discussing China’s Grand Strategy under its President Xi Jinping, starting with “What does China want?”
We then go over China’s Military Modernization - from bolstering their defense industrial complex to professionalizing their air force - and to what end China is taking on this endeavor.
Lastly, we discuss a few contemporary security challenges including Chinese-North Korean relations; Chinese ambitions in space; regional security matters involving Japan and South Korea; and China’s corporate espionage.
