Russia’s invasion of Ukraine brought into stark relief the importance of preparing allies to resist aggression by their authoritarian neighbors. China’s growing military and national power is increasing the threat to U.S. ally Taiwan and giving Beijing greater influence throughout the western Pacific. Please join Hudson Institute Senior Fellows Bryan Clark and Dan Patt for a discussion of how the United States can comprehensively address the challenges posed by China and Russia with Congresswoman Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA), a third-generation veteran who worked in ballistic missile defense during the end of the Cold War and currently serves on both the House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committees.
