S4EP1: Yasheng Huang

S4EP1: Yasheng Huang
Q: What do you think Trump's new term is going to look like and how will it affect China?
The biggest impact of Trump 2.0 will be uncertainty and chaos; there will be conflicting messages coming from his cabinet and policies towards China.
The Truth About Trump, Tariffs & Globalization | Martin Wolf S5EP4
Q: Could you give Rachel Reeves some advice?

The Truth About Trump, Tariffs & Globalization | Martin Wolf S5EP4
Q: What do you think of Trump's tariff strategy, if it is a strategy?
