In a special episode of Squawk Pod, Andrew Ross Sorkin is at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where he’s speaking with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken. As the world digests Taiwan's election results, wars in Ukraine and Gaza, and attacks in the Red Sea, Secretary Blinken discusses the U.S. relationship with China, as well as the intersection of private industry and geopolitics. As violence persists in the Middle East, both in the Israel-Hamas War and in the Red Sea, Secretary Blinken explains the nuance of de-escalation in the region, including protecting civilians and finding a sustainable solution to the Palestinian question.
