In anticipation of the US elections, we have prepared a new episode of our American studio for you. This time, host Yulia Kuzmich spoke with Dr. George Ku, an expert on US-China relations, who has spent his entire long career establishing trade relations between the US and Asian countries. George worked as a senior adviser on China at Deloitte for over 15 years, and also lectured at Stanford on how to build a business in Asia. We talked about how relations between Russia, China and the US will change, what the confrontation of the largest economic blocs and the current sanctions policy will lead to. We found out what ordinary Americans are afraid of and how much longer the US will be able to use the dollar as a weapon. We also discussed the prospects of the yuan and China's interests in Siberia. And in the last episode of the American studio, we raffled off a book by Jack Rasmus with the author's autograph. Thank you for coming up with so many cool names, we read them all and chose a winner: ​⁠@Hhhkirill, congratulations!
