Please be advised: This event will premiere LIVE on this page at 12:00 p.m. EST, Friday, March 12.

Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Eric Brown, Adjunct Fellow Nury Turkel, and Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Representative Michael McCaul (R-TX) for a discussion on U.S.-China relations.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) under Xi Jinping has become increasingly totalitarian at home and aggressive internationally, motivated by the desire to secure its power and make the world a safer place for its continued rule. This panel will discuss the prospects for holding the CCP leadership accountable for the genocidal repression of the Uyghur population in the Xinjiang region, defending the rights of Hong Kongers, deterring military aggression against Taiwan, and ensuring that the U.S. is prepared to out-compete China in an era of intensifying rivalry. Please join our distinguished panel for this timely discussion.
