The Catalyst: A Journal of Ideas from the Bush Institute
Broken China?
The combination of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the end of Beijing’s "zero-Covid" policy have dramatically changed China’s geopolitical position as well as its own society and domestic outlook.
In this edition of The Catalyst <[link removed]>, we’ve called on leading China and foreign policy experts to explain Beijing’s new strategy in the face of a rapidly evolving world.
On May 31, experts Victor Cha of the Bush Institute and the Center for Strategic and International Studies and Yun Sun of the Stimson Center will join moderator and Editor-in-Chief of The Catalyst Jonathan Tepperman for a virtual Engage at the Bush Center , presented by NexPoint webinar titled How COVID and Ukraine Have Changed Beijing’s Strategy. <[link removed]>
This virtual event will tackle all the topics explored in this issue and more, presenting a high-minded discussion and live Q&A for anyone interested in China and U.S.-China policy.
