Robert Patman: International relations professor says there's no doubt the West are concerned over China's Congress

All eyes are on China as the Communist Party's Congress kicks off. President Xi Jinping is widely expected to receive a third term. He's already called for an acceleration in building a world-class military while defending the country's zero-Covid policy. Otago University's Professor Robert Patman told Mike Hosking there's no doubt the Western World is increasingly worried at China's assertiveness on the world stage. He says there's also great concern for its position on Russia's invasion of Ukraine. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
