The US-China relationship is important for the well-being of both countries, but the relationship has grown increasingly tense. The rhetoric has led many to worry that a new Cold War, or worse, is on its way.

Are we on the road to war with China?

What are the risks for nuclear escalation?

What can individuals do to help build a more stable US-China relationship?

Join the Quincy Institute and the Washington Physicians for Social Responsibility for an in-person event in downtown Seattle as we address these questions and talk about the opportunities that exist to build a more stable relationship between the U.S. and China.
