This paper also tries to analyze as to whether a win-win outcome can be achieved for both China and the LAC nation-states and as to what China seeks from the region.

The paper also analyzes the post pandemic BRI investment in the LAC region 2022, Austral: Brazilian Journal of Strategy and International Relations.All Rights Reserved.
