The Trump team is preparing to assume power in Washington D.C. and levy new tariffs.

The U.S. is grappling with a worsening fentanyl epidemic, and tensions with China are central to the debate.

President Joe Biden’s diplomatic efforts with Beijing to curb the flow of fentanyl into the country have yielded limited progress, drawing criticism.

Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump has pledged a tougher approach, including tariffs and potential sanctions targeting Chinese entities involved in the drug trade.

With over 400,000 American lives lost to synthetic opioid overdoses in the past decade, the stakes for combating this crisis are higher than ever.

David Zhang from China Insider joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
