Are we in the midst of a new Cold War with China?

Dmitri Alperovitch, a leading expert on geopolitics and national security, argues that we are and the stakes are higher than ever. In the latest session of Unscripted, Dmitri delves into the striking similarities between the current U.S.-China tensions and the Cold War with the Soviet Union, emphasizing the critical importance of Taiwan and the technological race of the 21st
century.

Dmitri Alperovitch discusses the urgent need to recognize the new Cold War with China. He draws parallels between the current geopolitical landscape and the Cold War with the Soviet Union, highlighting key areas of competition such as military, economic, and technological domains.

Dmitri stresses the strategic importance of Taiwan, not just for its semiconductor industry but for its pivotal role in regional security. He outlines the critical technologies that will shape the future: AI, biotech, aerospace, and green energy—and underscores the necessity of maintaining an edge in these areas to secure national security and economic prosperity.
Dmitri also addresses the challenges posed by China's dominance in critical minerals and the need for the U.S. to leverage its strengths to navigate this complex geopolitical rivalry.
