Are Xi Jinping's power moves in China a warning to the West?

Description:

China’s President Xi Jinping was recently voted in for an unprecedented third term.  

He has also strengthened his grip on the Communist Party, putting his allies into many key roles.  

The news has sparked concerns about what Xi’s plans for China – and neighbouring Taiwan – will be.  

But how much do we actually know about what’s happening within the world’s most populated country? Is an invasion of Taiwan likely? And what does all this mean for a small country like New Zealand, which has grown hugely dependent on trade with China? 

Today, Damien is joined by international relations expert Professor Stephen Noakes, from the University of Auckland, for a discussion about the tense relationship between The Red Dragon and the West.
