- Title
CHINA'S NEW FOREIGN POLICY MODERATION - MIXED REGIONAL IMPLICATIONS.
- Authors
SUTTER, ROBERT; CHIN-HAO HUANG
- Abstract
Incorporating major foreign policy initiatives of leader Xi Jinping, Beijing completed its effort from the past two years with instructions in January on China's new approach to foreign affairs to Chinese foreign policy officials and others concerned. The new approach added authority and momentum to Beijing's emphasis since Xi's summit with US President Joe Biden last November on greater Chinese moderation and restraint as a "responsible" great power pursuing peace and development in dealing with Southeast Asian neighbors and elsewhere. Nevertheless, Beijing remains selective in how it applies moderation, and the record of the past two years shows great swings between moderation and truculence in its approach to foreign affairs, depending on circumstances which remain subject to change. The success of China's regional importance showed in Singapore's Institute of Southeast Asian Studies annual survey of regional elites with China viewed as both the leading economic and political-security power, overshadowing the United States, and the judgment that if forced to choose between them, more respondents would select China than the United States.
