PDB Situation Report | November 22nd, 2025: Putin's Economic Crisis Gets Worse & China Trades Blows With Japan

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report: Russia’s war economy is starting to crack. Deep Ukrainian strikes and tough new U.S. sanctions have pushed Moscow’s oil revenues to their lowest point in two years. We’ll explain what’s driving the pressure and why it matters. Eddie Fishman of the Center for a New American Security joins us for more. In Japan, a single off-the-cuff remark from new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has triggered the most serious diplomatic clash with China in years. We’ll break down what she said and how Tokyo and Beijing are reacting. Author Gordon Chang stops by to give his insight.
