Friedman on the “Two Chinas” and How Putin Saves Face
2024-02-13
George Friedman says there are two Chinas: one based in Shanghai and another that is still effectively a third-world country.

George and I also unpack the military stalemate in Ukraine and the increasingly complex posturing in the Middle East.
