I’m pleased to announce that I’m scheduled to return tonight to “CBS Eye on the World with John Batchelor.” I’m told that the segment we just finished taping will probably air at either 10:15 PM or 11:15 PM EST. But you’ll surely want to listen to the entire program, which is on weeknights between 10 PM and midnight EST for two reasons: first, because the content is always compelling; and second, because this particular conversation (which will also include co-host Gordon G. Chang) deals with President Biden’s upcoming telephone call with Chinese dictator Xi Jinping just when a Taiwan-related crisis seems to be brewing.
You can listen live at links like this one, and as always, if you can’t, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as it’s available.
And keep checking in with RealityChek for news of upcoming media appearances and other developments.
Why don’t we make a condition of the US providing defense and arms that South Korea and Taiwan build 3nm chip foundries in the US? FDR would have done it in a second, no free riders.
Sorry for the delay and thanks for taking the time to comment. I wish I could say your proposal would work, but I don’t this such a threat would be credible. After all, if the US doesn’t help defend these two countries, their leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing capabilities would fall into Chinese hands – exactly what the America has a vital interest in preventing.
