Episode Notes:

Kerry talks with Jack Watling, who co-authored “How Russia is Helping China Prepare to Seize Taiwan,” with Oleksandr V Danylyuk, published on the RUSI website. They discussed information that suggests that Russia is providing China with weapons and equipment for an airborne battalion, how such assistance could benefit China, and how it fits into the broader context of complex Russo-Chinese relations.
