In a refreshing change of pace, Brian and Tim spend time on one of their favorite non-Russia topics, China. First, they discuss President Biden's pledge to defend Taiwan from a PRC invasion and what it means (if anything). Next, they discuss the state of China's imports to Russia following the invasion of Ukraine and the growing debate over various proposals in the U.S. to create a "reverse CFIUS" process to review outbound investment to China and other countries of concern. Finally, Brian and Tim cover two new U.S. government advisories focused on North Korean IT workers and Sudan, respectively.
