How might the UK respond to rising geopolitical tensions in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait?
This question will be explored by our panel – who have subject matter expertise and experience in taking National Security Council decisions during crises – as they reflect on the findings from an event held earlier in the day, which simulates this imagined geopolitical crisis. The panel will also draw on their expertise for a broader discussion on where the UK sits in the geopolitical nexus of the region.
Speakers:
- Chair: Suzanne Raine (Associate Lecturer at the Centre for Geopolitics, Cambridge)
- Prof William Hurst (Chong Hua Professor of Chinese Development, Cambridge)
- Dr Thomas Grant (Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge)
- Amber Rudd (Home Secretary, 2016–18)
