From the transcript
It was the kind of report that no national leader wants to see leaked to the global press, a handful of small but shocking revelations that cast out onto a far more massive institution.
On the 6th January 2024, the Bloomberg Media Company revealed that according to multiple intelligence sources, widespread corruption within the Chinese armed forces has compromised China's military so badly that it's an open question whether China could even fight a war if it chose to.
The news breaks just weeks after a major purge closed out 2023 at the head of the Chinese Communist Party and missed a rapidly evolving geopolitical situation in East Asia and beyond.
