US-China strategic competition

Discussed in 9 analyzed podcast episodes across 8 shows

# Description These podcasts examine US-China strategic competition through multiple interconnected lenses: economic warfare tools (sanctions, export controls, dollar dominance), military positioning and capabilities (Chinese military purges, Taiwan invasion concerns), proxy conflicts in the Middle East and Latin America, and emerging technological competition (AI as a national security issue). The episodes analyze how the Trump administration's approach to China involves indirect confrontation through proxy states rather than direct engagement, while broader geopolitical instability—including Iran negotiations, debt cycles, and alliance deterioration—shapes the strategic environment in which US-China competition unfolds.
