What Actually Mattered at China’s Big Military Parade?
In this episode of The Diplomat’s Asia Geopolitics podcast hosts Ankit Panda (@nktpnd) and Katie Putz (@LadyPutz) -- joined by The Diplomat’s Editor-in-Chief Shannon Tiezzi -- discuss China's recent hosting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit and a military parade marking the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in the Pacific. We explore the significance of these events in showcasing China's global influence, military capabilities, and its strategic relationships, particularly with North Korea, Russia, and Central Asian states; and contrast China's assertive geopolitical positioning with the current inward focus of the United States.
