In this episode of China Insider, China Center Director Miles Yu analyzes the landmark ruling by the DC Appeals Court against TikTok that upholds legal protection of free speech against foreign adversaries’ malign influence.

China Insider is a weekly podcast project from the Hudson Institute's China Center, hosted by Miles Yu and Wilson Shirley who provide weekly news that mainstream American outlets often miss, as well as in-depth commentary and analysis on the China challenge and the free world’s future.

Welcome to the China Insider

December has been a bad month for the People’s Republic’s global ambitions. Miles and Wilson discuss Japan’s historic defense buildup and what it means for the global balance of power, China’s clashes with India along the Line of Actual Control, and how Xi Jinping’s recent visit to Saudi Arabia undermined his long-term strategy with Iran.

#3 | Pushback to the PRC from Japan, India, and Iran

Miles and Wilson discuss the Chinese Communist Party's use of high-tech surveillance technologies to repress the Chinese people and the pro-freedom demonstrations at Apple's facilities in China and California. They also evaluate General Secretary Xi Jinping's plans as he charts the way forward in a possible post-Zero-COVID world. Finally they analyze China's nationwide state funeral for former General Secretary Jiang Zemin, and the politics of death in communist regimes, going back to Lenin and Mao.

#4 | China-Russia Relations, the PRC's COVID-19 Surge, and 2023 Predictions

The big story out of China this week is that COVID-19 is ripping through the country and that Beijing’s lack of transparency has the World Health Organization urging the People’s Republic of China to change course. Miles Yu and Wilson Shirley discuss the state of the pandemic and the Chinese Communist Party playing politics with vaccines, China reopening its borders to the world, and what the United States’ policy toward China looks like now that the 118th Congress has been sworn in and is getting to work.

#5 | The PRC's Pandemic Chaos, The Reopening, and What To Expect from the 118th Congress

China's latest economic and demographic numbers show that the country is facing significant headwinds. But are they still too good to be true? Miles Yu and Wilson Shirley discuss what to make of the latest statistics before diving into Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's leadership and G7 world tour and finishing with a conversation on the recent revelations about China's more than 100 overseas police stations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and elsewhere.

#6 | China’s Economic and Demographic Headwinds, Kishida’s G7 Tour, and Beijing’s Overseas Police Stations

The chief epidemiologist of the PRC's Center for Disease Control and Prevention claims that 80% of China's population has been infected with COVID-19. Miles and Wilson discuss what that means for the toll the pandemic continues to take throughout the country. Then, they cover Beijing's charm offensive at Davos and at other international forums, before finishing up with a discussion of who really controls China's top technology and social media companies, and what that means for Americans' security.

#7 | COVID-19's Toll in China, Beijing's Charm Offensive at Davos, and the Real Power Behind Chinese Tech Companies

The definitive memoir of foreign policy in the Trump administration is out: former Director of the CIA and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's Never Give an Inch. Miles and Wilson discuss the China-related highlights from the book, before delving into two big stories from inside China this week. The first is the increasingly nationalist rhetoric out of Beijing around the Lunar New Year, and the second is the terrible case of a 15-year-old Chinese boy who went missing for three months, and what it tells us about human trafficking in the People's Republic of China.

#8 | Mike Pompeo Never Gives an Inch, Nationalist Rhetoric from Beijing, and the Case of a Missing Boy in China

Miles and Wilson discuss one of the most consequential periods of General Secretary Xi Jinping's tenure as the head of the Chinese Communist Party. From the 20th Party Congress, to popular protests over repression and Zero-Covid, to Xi's reentry into global forums like the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and his upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia, there's a lot going on in China. In the first episode of China Insider, Miles explains the history behind the headlines, and what to make of the last few weeks in China.

#1 | Protests in China, Xi Goes to Saudi Arabia, and More…

Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to reflect on the third Belt and Road Initiative Summit, and the state of the BRI today. They then discuss a new propaganda television show on Hunan TV, Confucius Meets Marx, and the degree to which these systems are fundamentally incompatible. Finally, they discuss the latest banned book in China, which commentators argue draws parallels between the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the trajectory of the People's Republic of China today under Xi Jinping.
