Where
Has your Chinese gotten rusty over the summer? Of course it has! Get back up to speed by joining us August 23, from 5:30-6:30pm, at CSIS (room 114) for a talk entitled "The New Southbound Policy and U.S.-Taiwan Relations: Signaling Foreign Policy Self-Restraint in the Taiwan Strait." The talk and subsequent discussion will be entirely in Chinese, as usual. Our speaker is Dr. Ping-Kuei Chen, assistant professor in the Department of Diplomacy at National Chengchi University. The Tsai administration has made the Southbound Policy a core pillar of their foreign policy, aiming to strengthen ties with countries in Southeast, South, and Austral-Asia. This will be a very helpful lecture for anyone wanting to better understand Cross-Straight relations, the "Free and Open Indo-Pacific," and the future of Asia-Pacific security.
