International responses to China’s Belt and Road Initiative have been varied. They not only reflect states’ attitudes towards China but also their domestic politics and how they perceive their place in the world order.
In this video, International Affairs authors will share their insights on how Japan is approaching China in the context of the Indo-Pacific, Chinese influence in Myanmar and Italy’s China policy.
International Affairs was started at Chatham House in 1922 to communicate research to members who could not attend in person. Over the last 100 years, it has transformed into a journal that publishes academically rigorous and policy-relevant research.
The speakers in this event drew on the following research:
• Japan's ‘Indo-Pacific’ question: countering China or shaping a new regional order? ([ Ссылка ])
• Myanmar's strategy in the China–Myanmar Economic Corridor: a failure in hedging? ([ Ссылка ])
• Italy's embrace of the Belt and Road Initiative: populist foreign policy and political marketing ([ Ссылка ])
