Remembering Henry Kissinger: the last of the great architects of Chinese American relations. Talking with Dr. Andrew Scobell
Henry Kissinger, Richard Nixon’s national security advisor and SoS, led the effort to normalize relations with China which had been frozen since 1949. Even out of office, he continued to be an influential thought leader in Chinese American relations for over 40 years.
Henry Kissinger's passing seemed to be covered more effusively and positively in China rather than the US where the coverage was muted and low key. China lamented that passing of a Great Man who reminded the Chinese public of the golden era of the bilateral relationship in the 1970s and 80s. In today's episode we will look at his legacy from both points of view.
