Inflection EP10: More Xinjiang Lies + a Closer Look at China’s Infrastructure
Week of July 26-30, 2021
Inflection is a weekly show featuring Angelo Giuliano and Brian Berletic, discussing recent headlines and in-depth discussion of topics shaping the shift from West to East and unipolarism to multipolarism.
This week we talk about the Associated Press’ smear piece on China’s security policies in Xinjiang province - a smear piece that contradicts its own reporting from 2017 when Xinjiang constituted a threat to not only China’s national security, but global security.
We also go in-depth on China’s infrastructure and how Beijing’s approach differs from the West - what it means for China and what it means for China’s Belt & Road partners.
