Shownotes Transcript

Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to discuss the surge in Chinese nationals entering the United States illegally, what's driving this phenomenon, and how policymakers ought to respond. They then turn to the upcoming "two sessions" in which the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and the National People’s Congress will convene, and what makes this year's rubber stamping sessions so peculiar. Finally, they discuss the U.S. Department of Commerce's recent probe into the importation of Chinese electric vehicles, and its national security implications.
