PSSI Special Ep. 05 - China-Russia Space Partnership Dynamic and Implications for Global Security

Welcome to the last episode of our special five episodes podcast mini-series, crafted in collaboration with PSSI, the Prague Security Studies Institute.   In this episode, Emma speaks with Dean Cheng, a consultant on Asian affairs and senior advisor to the U.S. Institute of Peace. Dr. Cheng delves into the complexities of the China-Russia relationship, highlighting their shared antipathy towards the West but differing ambitions and capacities.

This intricate relationship poses questions for Europe and the U.S., particularly in the space sector. Dr. Cheng emphasizes the importance of Western countries recognizing the geopolitical and economic intricacies at play, and he argues that while tensions rise, there's significant ground between open conflict and non-collaboration in space.
