Greg Olear’s guest is the former diplomat John Fowler, co-founder of International Intrigue, a media outfit that provides smart, insightful, and witty commentary on global politics. They first discuss the politics of John’s native Australia, and then turn their attention to China, the country where he served as a diplomat: Xi, the possibility of China ever becoming a democracy, Hong Kong, the oppression of the Uyghurs, China’s Belt and Road Initiative, Beijing’s relationship with Moscow, and the Taiwan situation.
