A rare chance to hear from United States Trade Representative Katherine Tai, at a time when political parties have become more skeptical of traditional free trade agreements. What will happen to the once-unimaginable tariffs put in place by former President Donald Trump as a weapon against a rising China? Are the hopes and goals of a global trading system still realistic and desirable? What has been significant for Ambassador Tai as the first Asian American to serve in the position?

Moderated by journalist Bethany McLean.
