Why China Says the U.S. and Philippines Are Setting Up an Asian NATO | Taiwan Talks EP386

Описание к видео Why China Says the U.S. and Philippines Are Setting Up an Asian NATO | Taiwan Talks EP386

Taiwan Talks is in Manila for a two-part special following Asia's premier security forum, the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore. At the forum, China accused the U.S. of seeking to set up an Asian NATO and said Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a direct result of NATO’s eastern expansion. We ask what's behind China's narrative and whether U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s speech gave fuel to Beijing’s fire with his theme of Indo-Pacific convergence in a multipolar world.

Our guests:

Jay Batongbacal
Director, University of the Philippines Institute of Maritime Affairs and Law of the Sea

Richard Heydarian
Host of “The View From Manila” TV show and senior lecturer at the University of the Philippines
