Hear from global experts about the looming China-Russia threat
China and Russia continue to strengthen their diplomatic and military ties, posing a threat to U.S. global leadership and further fueling international conflicts. On Tuesday, KERA’s Think host Krys Boyd will moderate an Engage at the Bush Center NexPoint Lecture with leading global experts about what the United States can do to counter the risk this burgeoning relationship poses to America and the world.

Ahead of the event, the Bush Institute published recommendations for the U.S. government to effectively counter China’s dangerous authoritarian ambitions.
