322. The Axis of Authoritarians

In this episode of Battleground: Ukraine, hosts Patrick Bishop and Saul David dissect the recent military parade in Beijing, where the leaders of China, Russia, and North Korea appeared together.

They discuss the strategic significance of this meeting, which took place in a historical venue and was a clear display of strength against the West. They also ask what the reality of China's "peaceful development" rhetoric is and also examine President Donald Trump's shifting and seemingly contradictory comments on the emerging alliance and his administration's recent approval of an arms package for Ukraine.
