Europe’s Approach to China, Taiwan, and the Indo-Pacific
Europe finds itself navigating the complexities of the Indo-Pacific landscape. Amidst fierce Sino-American competition, as well as recently held elections in Taiwan and forthcoming elections in 30-plus countries around the world, Brussels, Paris, and Berlin must define their positions and strategies in this strategically significant region. This panel of experts discussed Europe’s approach to China, Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific and the implications of ongoing geopolitical shifts on world politics, with speakers Philippe Le Corre (Senior Fellow, Center for China Analysis, Asia Society Policy Institute and Senior Advisor - Geopolitics, Asia Society France), Dr. Sriparna Pathak (Associate Professor, Jindal School of International Affairs, OP Jindal Global University) and Dr. Swasti Rao (Associate Fellow, Europe and Eurasia Centre, MP-Institute of Defence Studies & Analysis). The discussion was moderated by Amb. Ashok Kantha (Former Ambassador of India to China and Distinguished Fellow, Vivekananda International Foundation).
