i2 debates best approach to threat of China
Event organiser Intelligence Squared will today host a debate on the rise of China and whether it poses a threat to the Western world featuring leaders in the fields of economics and politics.
The ongoing trade war between the United States and China has intensified the rivalry between east and west, with tensions threatening to boil over.
This is particularly clear in the technology sector, where the US are leading a campaign to convince global leaders to ban Chinese telecommunications leader Huawei from participating in the development of next-generation 5G mobile networks. The Trump administration claims that Huawei has ties to the Chinese government and could be used to spy on foreign nations.
Keyu Jin, Professor of Economics at LSE, Sir Malcolm Rifkind, former UK Secretary of State for Defence, and Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator at the FT, will discuss the best way to tackle the threat of China and whether a different approach to Trump’s aggressive trade tactics is needed.
