As the Coronavirus outbreak spreads throughout the world and causes stock market panic, Tom discusses the implications for the country at the epicentre of it, China.

The rise of China presents opportunities and threats to the existing world order and asks huge questions of the U.K. about our strategic aims.

In the week that the terms of the Government’s foreign policy and defence review are set, Tom speaks to the author of the seminal book “The Silk Roads: a New History Of The World”, Peter Frankopan, about how the West, and the U.K., responds to the influence and power of China.
