China only acts without losing soldiers | Edward N. Luttwak on Danube Lectures

We spoke to Edward N. Luttwak, Contractual Strategic Advisor to the U.S. Department of Defense, and former advisor to many American presidents, about Ukraine's chances of winning the war, China's readiness to change the status quo, and the turbulence in the Middle East. The Danube Lectures is a video podcast of the Danube Institute, a Budapest-based conservative think tank that asks its guests – decision-makers, experts, academics, and politicians – about their unique ideas. Host: Tamás Maráczi, a journalist at the Danube Institute.
