In this week’s episode of China Insider, Miles Yu discusses the latest sanctions from the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Asset Controls targeting Chinese shadow fleet vessels involved in illicit Iranian oil transports, and the role these measures play in the larger scope of Economic Fury. Next, Miles examines Japan's participation in the Balikatan joint training military exercise, along with the U.S. and Philippines, and the larger implications of Japan's increased involvement in bilateral and multilateral security alliance frameworks in the Indo-Pacific. Finally, Miles reviews recent CCP regulations that further restrict the freedom of multinational corporations to decouple from Chinese markets and shift supply chains away from the country.
