The Belt & Road Initiative (BRI) in Southeast Asia after COVID-19: Towards a New Deal?
Practical information
A "Les Jeudis de l'Ifri" videoconference around Sophie BOISSEAU du ROCHER, Associate Research Fellow at Ifri's Center for Asian Studies.
China has made its flagship project, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a tool of its public diplomacy, praising its "inclusive", "win-win", "peaceful" nature. Six years after its launch, what's the situation in Southeast Asia? The question takes on all its acuity with COVID-19, which could lead to a reconfiguration of some value chains in the region.
This debate is for corporate members only. It will be conducted in French.
