President Donald Trump is in Beijing for a delayed but much anticipated summit with China's President Xi Jinping. A successful meeting—let alone a functional and effective relationship with Beijing—will depend on America reading Xi's China right.

Join Aaron David Miller as he sits down with David Rennie, the Economist's geopolitics editor, author of The Telegram column, and former bureau chief in Beijing, on the next Carnegie Connects.
