Part 1: Rahm Emanuel: CCP is Stealing and Cheating its Way to Leadership
08/02/2024 US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel: When Xi Jinping came to power in 2012, CCP went from thinking of America and the West as strategic competitors to strategic adversaries. And we held on to strategic competitors, but now we’re accelerating realizing this is different. CCP has been stealing and cheating, treating intellectual property theft as a norm, subsidizing its private sector, and its whole stragegy is to crush the opposition. That’s a different economic model to the point that is destructive.

Part 2: Rahm Emanuel: Food Is the Biggest Threat to China’s Economic Security
08/02/2024 US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel: The food problem is the biggest economic insecurity for China. Without enough food to feed the population, domestic unrest will occur. The second insecurity for China is energy, and the United States can take many actions in the maritime field to affect its energy security.

Part 3: Xi Jinping’s Current Third Term Is a ‘Snake-Bitten’ Term
08/02/2024 US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel: Xi Jinping’s governance has continuity, but continuity isn’t always a positive thing. His third term is currently showing signs of fatigue and facing significant challenges. Although the U.S. holds elections every four years, its foreign policy does not necessarily change drastically; each president simply brings their own focus to the role.
