China
Are America’s alliances a source of strength or a burden as it competes with China?
CNAPS and the Epoch Foundation organized this conference examining cross-strait relations and U.S. policy toward Asia at a time of political change in Taiwan and the United States. Three panels, featuring Brookings and CNAPS scholars as well as other experts, analyzed U.S. policy, cross-Strait relations, and the economy of mainland China. Brookings President Strobe Talbott and Vincent Siew, vice president of the Republic of China, provided keynote remarks.
