Russia, Ukraine and China's Long Game - Former PM Kevin Rudd and Peter Mansbridge In Conversation

On March 18, former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd joined celebrated broadcaster and Munk School Distinguished Fellow Peter Mansbridge for a conversation about Russia, Ukraine and China's Long Game. Rudd is the President of the Asia Society and author of the forthcoming book, The Avoidable War.
Event description:
In early February, China and Russia issued a joint declaration that solidified their bilateral relationship, outlining their intention to advance “unprecedented” economic and security cooperation. The statement, which ran more than 5000 words in length, declared that there were “no limits” to the China-Russian relationship and signaled that China is willing to stand together with Russia against the West. Weeks later, Russia launched a full-scale attack on Ukraine. Was China aware of Putin’s intentions? Will China continue to stand with Russia? Has the world’s unified response to Russia’s attack changed China’s calculus? What does this China-Russia alliance mean for the liberal international order?
