In the pilot of China Watch, Alice Han and James Kynge break down how Beijing is positioning itself after the Trump–Putin summit — and why China might quietly prefer a long war in Ukraine. Then, they unpack Trump’s embrace of state-style capitalism and what it means for U.S. allies and rivals alike. Finally, they take you inside Beijing’s first-ever humanoid robot games — a spectacle that’s part comedy, part preview of China’s AI ambitions.
