On January 22, 2025, ICAS Research Associate Jessica Martin acted as the guest expert speaker for a local Great Decisions gathering, delivering a presentation on U.S.-China relations.
After providing a historical overview of U.S.-China relations and its evolution over time, the presentation addressed the differences in U.S. and Chinese government structures, national priorities, perspectives, and geopolitical strategies. An interactive question and answer session followed, in which a variety of issues such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, tariffs, people-to-people engagement, maritime relations, and the 2024 U.S. presidential election were discussed.
