ISN’T ONE CHINA ENOUGH?

VAN JACKSON, MIRA RAPP-HOOPER AND DEAN CHENG

In this episode of Pacific Pundit, we think through the implications of President Trump’s words and deeds for the U.S. “One China” policy. Our historical segment explores Henry Kissinger’s negotiation with China’s Chou Enlai to establish the Shanghai Communique—the foundation of modern U.S. relations with China. In expert interviews, we get Mira Rapp-Hooper (Center for a New American Security) and Dean Cheng (The Heritage Foundation) to weigh in with advice on how to navigate China-Taiwan relations during the Trump administration. And in a recently declassified National Intelligence Estimate from 1999, we discover what the CIA believed China’s “red lines” were for Taiwan.
