China-US tech race / Donald Trump's plan to "take over" Gaza

2025-02-07
 On Friday's edition of Global Focus, we’re talking about the innovation race between China and the US.

From the release of artificial intelligence app DeepSeek to award-winning Chinese scientists leaving US universities to take up roles in China, the past month has shown signs of deepening competition between the world’s two largest economies.


While some view these developments a sign of decoupling, others see it as beneficial to both sides, with tools such as open source seen as having a potential to strengthen collaboration between the two giants.


In the second part of the show, we discuss the future of Gaza, following US President Donald Trump’s proposals to take over the war-torn enclave. Should we take him seriously?
