The U.S. and South Korea are preparing for joint war drills as part of its escalation against China. Meanwhile, a recent Atlantic Council report advises the U.S. to prepare for nuclear war with North Korea and China at the same time. This week, Ju-Hyun Park of Nodutdol joins Amanda Yee to discuss the annual Ulchi Freedom Shield military exercises, whether the election of South Korean president Lee Jae-Myung signals a turning point in South Korea-China relations, and how the U.S. is trying to turn the entirety of the Pacific into a frontline for war with China.
Our understanding of China — and U.S.-China relations — has become a defining feature of all global politics. The China Report is a new show produced in collaboration with Pivot to Peace where every week, we will be helping you through all the propaganda with an independent view of the country we are taught to hate, but know so little about.
BreakThrough News is building the media arm of the movement. We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities — because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.
Think to yourself, is this article something that would be published anywhere other than BreakThrough?
Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape — controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.
Working-class people deserve better, we deserve media for and by us. We are not funded by billionaires or corporations – we are funded by you. Without you, BreakThrough would not be possible, so become a member and build the media arm of the movement with us.
