Episode Seven: China - A Battle of Values

  • Summary

  • This episode explores a global battle of values between China and leading democracies over issues like Hong Kong, Taiwan and Xinjiang.

    It’s being fought with an array of covert weapons, from cyber attacks and information operations to economic coercion and even something called “lawfare”.

    Allegations of such behaviour are made and denied by both sides, which of course is to be expected - in the grey zone.

    Tom Tugendhat, Conservative MP, chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee
    Matthew Turpin, visiting fellow, Hoover Institution
    Charlie Parton, former British diplomat, senior fellow at the Royal United Services Institute
    Dr Shi Yinhong, Director of the Academic Committee of the School of International Studies and US Research Center of Renmin University in Beijing
