Episode: China Reacts to Fukushima Water Release, BRICS Expansion, and China’s Collapsing Economy
Description: Shane Leary joins Miles Yu for a conversation on the Chinese Communist Party’s hysterical and hypocritical reaction to Japan releasing wastewater from the Fukushima incident into the ocean, and how this backfired on the Chinese seafood industry. They then discuss the historic expansion of BRICS and what this means for the international system. Finally, Miles offers his thoughts on the continuing downward spiral of the Chinese economy and its political implications for the regime.
