Trump or Xi: Who Blinked First?
It may have been the most significant hour and forty minutes in global geopolitics this year...
If the highly anticipated summit between Presidents Xi and Trump in South Korea was about putting out the fires of a great power trade war, the flames seem to be under control... for now. But was it a win-win for everyone?
Geraldine Doogue and Hamish Macdonald discuss which cans made it onto the negotiating table and were kicked down the road. Then they have a frank conversation with the former Singaporean diplomat Bilahari Kausikan about how South-east Asian countries responded to Trump's whirlwind tour through Asia and why they might be uniquely positioned to deal with a character like Donald Trump.
Recommendations:
Geraldine: The Myth of the Asian Century | A Lowy Institute Paper: Penguin Special by Bilahari Kausikan
Hamish: Aiming Higher: Universities and Australia's Future by George Williams
