China’s global port politics, with Clark Banach and Jacob Gunter
Beijing’s global push to establish a global network of ports with Chinese involvement is slowing. Today’s guests on the MERICS China Podcast are Clark Banach, Program Director at the Alethia Research Institution and former MERICS Futures Fellow, and Jacob Gunter, Lead Analyst at MERICS.
They discuss the development and changes in China’s global infrastructure investments with podcast host Johannes Heller-John, and analyze the aims Beijing wants to achieve with these investments and the impact of Chinese port investments on the European and global markets.
