Amid COVID 19 Fallout, US Should Pivot Towards Taiwan & Away from China—William Stanton | CCP Virus

What explains Taiwan’s success in containing coronavirus, or CCP cirus, despite Taiwan’s close proximity to mainland China? How has the Chinese Communist Party influenced the WHO? Over the past several decades, how has US policy towards China been mistaken and shortsighted? How would the U.S. and other free countries in the West benefit from a closer relationship with Taiwan? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. William Stanton, who served for 34 years as U.S. diplomat, including two assignments at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing. His final posting was as Director of the American Institute in Taiwan, the equivalent role to Ambassador. Now he is Vice President of the National Yang-Ming University of Taiwan. This is American Thought Leaders 🇺🇸, and I’m Jan Jekielek.
