Will the US Presidential Election Change the New Cold War? (Saturday 7 November)

Saturday 7 November

7am (US Eastern), 12pm (UK), 8pm (China).

US, Chinese and other experts opposing a New Cold War will analyse the consequences of the outcome of the US presidential election.

President Trump launched a New Cold War against China which has led to a dangerous rise in global tensions. It is a decisive part of an aggressive ‘America First’ foreign policy which has also involved an attack on the people of many other countries – including US support for coups in Latin American countries such as Bolivia.

At this webinar experts from the US, China, Britain, Bolivia, India and other countries will discuss whether the outcome of the US presidential election will end, continue or change the tactics of the US in the New Cold War.

The event will be broadcast in English and Chinese with simultaneous translation. It is jointly sponsored by No Cold War, the Tricontinental Institute for Social Research, and Chongyang Institute, Renmin University of China.
