Why Congressman Andy Kim is Worried About War With China

A viral photo captured Rep. Andy Kim as he worked to clear debris in the aftermath of the Capitol attack. Two years after January 6th, Congressman Andy Kim has been reflecting on today's era of division and uncertainty.    From the failure of deterrence with Russia and China, to rising authoritarianism and a growing disconnect between Washington and the American people, geopolitical norms are under stress. To avoid catastrophic international conflict, Rep. Kim says we will need to think creatively, and act empathetically.    Kim sits down with World Affairs CEO Philip Yun to discuss why now is the time to steer the ship back to calmer waters, and why it’s important to bring the American people into the conversation.    Guest:   Democratic Congressman Andy Kim, New Jersey’s Third District    Host:     Philip Yun, World Affairs CEO   If you appreciate this episode and want to support the work we do, please consider making a donation to World Affairs.
