Join Hudson Institute for a conversation with Assistant to the President and Director of the Office for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro, who will discuss the status and lessons learned from the ongoing U.S.-China trade negotiations. Hudson Senior Fellow and Director for Chinese Strategy Michael Pillsbury will moderate the conversation.
As White House trade adviser, Dr. Navarro has been at the forefront of U.S.-China trade negotiations over the past two years. As the trade deal nears completion, Dr. Navarro’s efforts have helped expose the unfair trade practices and economic espionage regularly committed under the direction of the Chinese Communist Party, while working towards a more equitable agreement between the two nations.
Dr. Navarro will deliver a speech on his observations and join Dr. Pillsbury for a discussion on what a second phase of talks might look like with a new American administration on the horizon. Dr. Navarro's previous statements on China have been included in the Hudson Institute report A Guide to the Trump Administration's China Policy Statements, edited by Dr. Pillsbury.
A panel of experts will discuss how the Japanese government should approach domestic political questions, its partnership with America, and Japan’s role in the world.
Hudson will welcome Senators Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Todd Young (R-IN) to discuss their proposal to restore America’s shipping and shipbuilding industries to help deter Chinese aggression.
With Research Fellow Zineb Riboua, Ambassador Zimeray will examine the legal, political, and strategic implications of Sansal’s detention and what it reveals about freedom of expression under authoritarian regimes.
