Gordon G. Chang On The Brett Winterble SHow
Manage episode 508131512 series 2873625
Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!
We're joined by Gordon G. Chang from Gatestone Institute and a leading voice on U.S.–China relations to talk about escalating tensions with China and instability in the Asia-Pacific region. Brett kicks off the conversation with questions about whether former President Trump should travel to China to meet Xi Jinping. Chang strongly advises against it, explaining how Chinese diplomacy views such visits as a show of submission — a dangerous precedent.
They also dive into the troubling political shift in South Korea, where newly elected President Yi Moon is showing clear favoritism toward China and North Korea, undermining democratic institutions and straining U.S. relations. Chang warns that Yi could drag South Korea into Beijing's orbit, threatening the U.S. defense posture in the region. Finally, they discuss the growing flashpoint at Scarborough Shoal, where China is using aggression to expand its control in the South China Sea, directly challenging U.S. treaty obligations with the Philippines.
