The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Richard Arnold: Biden in Vietnam makes his latest attempt to draw one of China's neighbours closer to the US

eal in hand to draw yet another one of China's neighbors closer to the United States.  In just the last five months, Biden has hosted the Philippines' president at the White House for the first time in over a decade; he has fêted the Indian prime minister with a lavish state dinner; and he has hosted his Japanese and South Korean counterparts for a summit ripe with symbolism at the storied Camp David presidential retreat.  At each turn, Biden's courtship and his team's steadfast diplomacy have secured stronger diplomatic, military and economic ties with a network of allies and partners joined if not by an outright sense of alarm at China's increasingly aggressive military and economic posture, then at least by a growing sense of caution and concern.  The latest page in the US's Indo-Pacific playbook will come via the establishment of a “comprehensive strategic partnership” that will put the US on par with Vietnam's highest tier of partners, including China, according to US officials familiar with the matter.  “It marks a new period of fundamental reorientation between the United States and Vietnam,” a senior administration official said ahead of Biden's arrival in Hanoi, saying it would expand a range of issues between the two countries.  “It's not going to be easy for Vietnam, because they're under enormous pressure from China,” the official went on. “We realize the stakes and the President is going to be very careful how he engages with Vietnamese friends.”  The US' increasingly tight-knit web of partnerships in the region is just one side of the US's diplomatic strategy vis-à-vis China. On a separate track, the Biden administration has also pursued more stable ties and improved communication with Beijing over the last year, with a series of top Cabinet secretaries making the trip to the Chinese capital in just the last few months.  The latter part of that playbook has delivered fewer results thus far than Biden's entreaties to China's wary neighbors, a dichotomy that was on stark display as Biden attended the G20 in New Delhi, while Chinese leader Xi Jinping did not.  The president did not appear overly concerned when questioned Saturday about his Chinese counterpart's absence at the summit.  “It would be nice to have him here,” Biden said, with Modi and a handful of other world leaders by his side. “But, no, the summit is going well.”  As Biden and Xi jockey for influence in Asia and beyond, merely showing up can be seen as a power play and Biden sought to make the most of Xi's absence, seizing the opening to pitch the United States' sustained commitment both to the region and to developing nations around the world.  In Vietnam, it's not only China whose influence Biden is competing with. As he arrived, reports suggested Hanoi was preparing a secret purchase of weapons from Russia, its longtime arms supplier.  On Monday, Biden plans to announce steps to help Vietnam diversify away from an over-reliance on Russian arms, a senior administration official said.  As China's economy slows down and its leader ratchets up military aggressions, Biden hopes to make the United States appear a more attractive and reliable partner. In New Delhi, he did so by wielding proposals to boost global infrastructure and development programs as a counterweight to China.  Beijing and Moscow have both condemned a so-called “Cold War mentality” that divides the world into blocks. The White House insists it is seeking only competition, not conflict. Biden told reporters on Sunday that he is “sincere” about improving the United States' relationship with China.  “I don't want to contain China, I just want to make sure we have a relationship with China that is on the up-and-up, squared away, and everyone knows what it's all about,” Biden said. “We have an opportunity to strengthen alliances around the world to maintain stability. That's what this trip is all about, having India cooperate much more with the United States, be closer to the United States, Vietnam being closer with the United States. It's not about containing China. It's about having a stable base – a stable base in the Indo-Pacific.”  Still, the desire to pull nations into the fold has been evident.  Squeezed by rival giants  On Saturday, Biden held a photo op with the leaders of India, Brazil and South Africa – three members of the BRICS grouping that Xi has sought to elevate as a rival to US-dominated summits like the G20.  If there is a risk in that approach, it is leaving nations feeling squeezed by rival giants. For Biden, however, there is an imperative in at least offering poorer nations an alternative to China when it comes to investments and development. The president on Sunday acknowledged that China's economy has faced “some difficulties” recently, noting stalled growth and an unfolding real estate crisis in the country, but attempted to tamp down the idea that the United States was rooting against China's economic success, telling reporters, “I want to see China succeed economically, but I want to see them succeed by the rules.”  “We're not looking to hurt China, sincerely, we're all better off if China does well – China does well by the international rules,” he added.  But increasingly, China's neighbors – like Vietnam – are seeking a counterweight to Beijing's muscular and often unforgiving presence in the region, even if they are not prepared to entirely abandon China's sphere of influence in favor of the US'.  “We're not asking or expecting the Vietnamese to make a choice,” the senior administration official said. “We understand and know clearly that they need and want a strategic partnership with China. That's just the nature of the beast.”  Days before Biden's visit and the expected strategic partnership announcement, China sent a senior Communist Party official to Vietnam to enhance “political mutual trust” between the two communist neighbors, the official Chinese Xinhua news agency reported.  Asked about Biden's upcoming visit to Vietnam, China's Foreign Ministry on Monday warned the US against using its relations with individual Asian countries to target a “third party.”  “The United States should abandon Cold War zero-sum game mentality, abide by the basic norms of international relations, not target a third party, and not undermine regional peace, stability, development and prosperity,” ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told a daily briefing.  Vietnam has also sought to maintain good ties with China. Its Communist Party chief was the first foreign leader to call on Xi in Beijing after the Chinese leader secured an unprecedented third term last October. In June, Vietnam's prime minister met Xi during a state visit to China.  But even as it seeks to avoid China's wrath, Vietnam is increasingly pulled toward the US out of economic self-interest – its trade with the US has ballooned in recent years and it is eager to benefit from American efforts to diversify supply chains outside of China – as well as concern over China's military build-up in the South China Sea.  Experts say those tightened partnerships are as much a credit to the Biden administration's comprehensive China strategy as it is a consequence of the way China has increasingly aggressively wielded its military and economic might in the region.  “China has long complained about the US alliance network in its backyard. It has said that these are vestiges of the Cold War, that the US needs to stop encircling China, but it's really China's own behavior and its choices that have driven these countries together,” said Patricia Kim, a China expert at the Brookings Institution.  “So in many ways, China's foreign policy has backfired.”  From foes to friends  The upgrading of the US-Vietnam relationship carries huge significance given Washington's complicated history with Hanoi.  The two countries have gone from mortal enemies that fought a devastating war to increasingly close partners, even with Vietnam still run by the same Communist forces that ultimately prevailed and sent the US military packing.  There were signs during Biden's visit that some of those differences remain. Reporters representing US media outlets were physically held back from covering events at the Communist Party Headquarters – an event the White House and Vietnamese officials had agreed would be covered by the American press.  The episode only served to underscore the extent to which Biden is elevating US strategic and economic interests despite human rights and press freedom concerns.  Vietnam is the world's third-largest jailer of journalists, according to Reporters Without Borders, and the country ranks 178th out of 180 countries on the organization's World Press Freedom Index.  The White House has defended its engagement with autocratic regimes around the world, insisting that Biden raises human rights and democracy issues privately.  While the upgrading of that relationship has been a decade in the making, US officials say a concerted drive to take the relationship to new heights carried that years-long momentum over the line.  A late June visit to Washington by Vietnam's top diplomat, Chairman Le Hoai Trung, crystallized that possibility. During a meeting with national security adviser Jake Sullivan, the two first discussed the possibility of upgrading the relationship, according to a Biden administration official.  As he walked back to his office, Sullivan wondered whether the US could be more ambitious than a one-step upgrade in the relationship – to “strategic partner” – and directed his team to travel to the region and deliver a letter to Trung proposing a two-step upgrade that would take the relations to their highest-possible level, putting the US on par with Vietnam's other “comprehensive strategic partners”: China, Russia, India and South Korea.  Sullivan would speak again with Trung on July 13 while traveling with Biden to a NATO summit in Helsinki.  The conversation pushed the possibility of a two-step upgrade in a positive direction, but it wasn't until a mid-August visit to the White House by Vietnam's ambassador to Washington that an agreement was in hand. Inside Sullivan's West Wing office, the two finalized plans to take the US-Vietnam relationship to new heights and for Biden and Vietnam's leader, General Secreatary Nguyen Phu Trong, to shake hands in Hanoi.  The trip was still being finalized when Biden revealed during an off-camera fundraiser that he was planning to visit. The remark sent the planning into overdrive.  Still, US officials are careful not to characterize the rapprochement with Vietnam – or with the Philippines, India, Japan and Korea, or its AUKUS security partnership with Australia and the United Kingdom – as part of a comprehensive strategy to counter China's military and economic heft in the Indo-Pacific.  “I think that's a deliberate design by the Biden administration,” said Yun Sun, the China program director at the Stimson Center. “You don't want countries in the region or African countries to feel that the US cares about them only because of China because that shows a lack of commitment. That shows that, ‘Well, we care about you only because we don't want you to go to the Chinese.'”  - by Jeremy Diamond and Kevin Liptak, CNNSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine is putting one of its closest partners, China, in a difficult position. Just weeks before the conflict began, China and Russia announced a new partnership without limits that was seen as a shared bulwark against pressure by the United States and its allies. But Russia's choice to attack its neighbor Ukraine is an awkward tension with China's long-standing position against the use of force between states, and some cracks may be showing in the new relationship as China has so far not proven willing to come as wholeheartedly to Russia's support as its pre-war declaration might have suggested.To better understand how the war in Ukraine is impacting China's strategy toward the rest of the world, Scott R. Anderson sat down with two legal experts: Dr. Patricia Kim, a David M. Rubenstein Fellow at the Brookings Institution who specializes in China policy, and Professor Julian Ku, a professor at Hofstra University School of Law who has studied China's approach to the international system. They discussed the new relationship between China and Russia, China's role in the Ukraine conflict and what lessons it is taking away from the Western response, including for its own interests in Taiwan.

Featuring guest speaker, Mai Ratakonda of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. In Season 2, Episode 2 of Notorious, we discuss the case of Gonzales v. Carhart, which involved the Supreme Court's consideration of the constitutionality of The Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003 (“the Act”). In 2003, Congress passed and President Bush signed the Act into law. Dr. LeRoy Carhart and other physicians, who performed late term abortions, sued to stop the Act from going into effect. A federal district court agreed and ruled the Act unconstitutional. The government appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, which upheld the lower court's ruling. The question ultimately presented to the Supreme Court was whether the Act was an unconstitutional violation of the personal liberty protected by the Fifth Amendment because the Act lacked an exception for partial birth abortion necessary to protect mothers. In a 5-4 ruling, the majority ruled that there was no undue burden because there are other types of abortions that one could get in their second trimester. Justice Ginsburg wrote the dissent, joined by Justice Stevens, Justice Souter, and Justice Breyer. The dissent criticized the majority for failing to follow precedent in this case. Specifically, Justice Ginsburg noted “Retreating from prior rulings that abortion restrictions cannot be imposed absent an exception safeguarding a woman's health, the Court upholds an Act that surely would not survive under the close scrutiny that previously attended state decreed limitations on a woman's reproductive choices.” Mai Ratakonda of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, joined by Patterson Belknap attorneys Michelle Bufano and Patricia Kim discuss Justice Ginsburg's impact on this case.

In Episode 11 of Notorious, we discussed the case of Craig v. Boren, in which Ruth Bader Ginsberg, an attorney for the ACLU, helped shape a new level of judicial review in gender discrimination cases, appearing as amicus curiae. In addressing Oklahoma laws that prevented young men, but not young women, from consuming low alcohol-content beer, the United States Supreme Court held that the gender classifications at issue were unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.  In making that determination, the Court found that the statistics relied on by the state were insufficient to show a substantial relationship between the statute and the benefits intended to stem from it.  As a result, the Court instituted a new standard of judicial review, "intermediate scrutiny" under which: (1) the state must prove the existence of specific important governmental objectives; and (2) the law must be substantially related to the achievement of those objectives. Justice Ginsberg, who would not join the Supreme Court, until 17 years later, influenced the outcome as an ACLU lawyer, appearing as amicus curiae, or a friend of the Court.  Ginsburg advocated on behalf of the male petitioner, arguing for striking down a law that discriminated against young men. Patterson Belknap attorneys, Michelle Bufano, Alejandro Cruz and Patricia Kim discuss this case and Justice Ginsburg's long legacy of fighting for equality for all.    Related Resources: For a selection of Justice Ginsburg's writings, see Decisions and Dissents of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg:  A Selection, edited by Corey Brettschneider.
