China, Taiwan, & Lessons From Ukraine

Enjoying the show or have feedback? I'd love to hear from you!

On our inaugural episode, we discussed several questions plaguing the defense community ever since the start of the war in Ukraine: are we learning lessons from Ukraine and applying them to a potential future conflict in Taiwan?
If so, are we learning the right lessons?
Is China truly ready for a fight of this magnitude?
