The Cato Institute continues its series of insightful conversations with reporters and scholars tackling today’s most pressing issues. This edition brings together Robert Delaney, the North American bureau chief for the *South China Morning Post*, and Cato Institute experts Eric Gomez and Clark Packard for a timely discussion on US-China relations, including the following:

- What signals is Donald Trump sending about his approach to China, and how should we interpret them?
- How does Trump’s current rhetoric compare to his first term and the Biden administration’s policies?
- What lies ahead for one of the most complex and consequential bilateral relationships in the world?

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the shifts, continuities, and implications of US-China policy from some of the field’s leading voices.
