2 pm • Political Author Peter de Krassel: U.S.- China Relations/Trade War • Talk, Q&A, Booksigning • Join Peter de Krassel for what promises to be a lively discussion about U.S.- China relations. “The failure of the U.S. delegation led by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to break the trade deadlock – and leaving Beijing earlier than expected without meeting Chinese leaders – is no surprise.

A subject I have written about extensively in my Custom Maid for New World Disorder trilogy and Feasting Dragon, Starving Eagle.” —Peter de Krassel Read More »
