This week, China Center Program Manager Shane Leary joins China Center Director Miles Yu to discuss the 34th anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and this tragic event's enduring historical and global significance. They then discuss the impetus behind the AUKUS trilateral security agreement between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and its significance for the preservation of a free and open Indo-Pacific. Finally, they conclude with a conversation regarding this past weekend's near collision between a Chinese warship and the USS Chung-Hoon during a US-Canada joint mission in the Taiwan Strait.
