China Decode: Trump Warns American Allies on China—But Beijing Keeps Winning

China Decode: Trump Warns American Allies on China—But Beijing Keeps Winning

In this episode of China Decode, Alice Han and James Kynge unpack how China is reshaping global power—sometimes loudly, sometimes through pandas, ports, and pop culture. As Donald Trump warns allies like the U.K. and Canada that getting closer to Beijing is “dangerous,” reality tells a messier story: British pharma giant AstraZeneca is cutting billion-dollar deals in China, Japan is losing its last pandas amid rising tensions, and Washington is scrambling to blunt China’s grip on critical minerals. They also dive into a Panamanian court ruling that just blew up a Hong Kong firm’s control over key canal ports—an apparent U.S. win that could quickly become a new U.S.–China flashpoint over one of the world’s most important trade chokepoints. And finally, they decode the viral idea that everyone is living a “very Chinese time,” from wellness trends to memes, and what it says about growing American disillusionment—and China’s evolving soft power. Why does all this matter? Because these fights aren’t abstract: they affect supply chains, prices, travel, jobs, and how the next generation sees America’s place in the world.
