| One of the most vexing foreign policy challenges facing the incoming Biden administration will be managing America’s relationship with China. The Trump administration launched a trade war and described the competition between Washington and Beijing as an existential struggle. With tit-for-tat tariffs, consulate closures, expulsions of journalists and heightened military manuevers, the Sino-U.S. relationship is at its most contentious since official ties were restored in 1972. Many analysts agree that the old consensus of engaging with China in hopes of reforming its system is now outdated. It will fall to President-elect Biden to define the next era of Sino-American relations, and whether the two sides are heading for cooperation or confrontation. | |||
| The panelists will analyze the future prospects for the world’s most important relationship. Moderated by Keith Richburg, a member of the FCC Board of Governors. | |||
