#27 | China’s College Entrance Exam (Gaokao), A PRC “Spy base” in Cuba, and Blinken to Beijing
This week, China Center Program Manager Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to discuss gaokao, the annual college entrance exams in China, which are reopening for the first time since the Zero-covid lockdowns. They then discuss the recent reports of a Chinese spy base operating out of Cuba, and how this development fits into the broader history of the relationship between Cuba and the PRC. Finally, they conclude with a preview of Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s June 18 trip to Beijing, a visit which was rescheduled during the Spy Balloon controversy in February.
