The US-China problem
The relationship between the United States and China affects everything from global trade and technology to climate policy and security. But how well do the two superpowers really understand each other?
Donald Trump’s visit, from 13-15 May, will be the first to China by a US president in nearly a decade.
We examine the assumptions, misconceptions and political narratives shaping one of the world’s most consequential rivalries.
And also explore how censorship and propaganda shape public opinion in China, whether anti-foreigner sentiment is growing, and why many Chinese people believe the West is hostile towards China.
Host Mariko Oi speaks to BBC China correspondent Laura Bicker in Beijing and Zheng Yu Huang, a former White House Fellow under President Obama and former president of the Committee of 100, about what both sides want from a Trump-Xi summit.
