About the Episode
Taiwan has long been the most tense flashpoint between Washington and Beijing. By law, the U.S. is required to help Taiwan defend its democracy. This week, China’s People’s Liberation Army launched new drills and sent ships around Taiwan. The U.S. said the moves “put the region’s security, and the world’s prosperity, at risk.” Nick Schifrin reports for our series: Taiwan: Risk and Resistance.
