The Event

In the upcoming 2024 U.S. presidential election, the showdown between U.S. Vice President Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, and former President Trump, the Republican nominee, not only concerns the future of the United States, but also profoundly affects U.S.-China relations.

On October 17, Yale Center Beijing will host Professor Taisu Zhang from Yale Law School to share his insights on the 2024 U.S. presidential election and discuss the potential impact of the election results on U.S. and China.
