Speaker: David Firestein, President and Chief Executive Officer at The George H. W. Bush Foundation for U.S.-China Relations

Over the last four years, the U.S.-China relationship has deteriorated dramatically, reaching a modern-era low-point by the end of 2020.  As the Biden Administration takes the reins of the U.S. government, what is the current state of the U.S.-China relationship?  Where are the issues currently on the agenda?  What are the major disagreements?  What are areas of possible collaboration?  What are the near-term and longer-term prospects for the relationship?  George H. W. Bush Foundation for U.S.-China Relations president and CEO David Firestein, a former U.S. diplomat, think tank executive and university professor, will share his insights, pointing to both likely areas of policy continuity and possible points of departure.
