Abstract:
This is the second report in ODI’s Economic Pulse series. Pulse 2 explores China’s international economic response as the world adapts to Covid-19. The report analyses China’s international engagements, especially in developing countries, against the backdrop of its own recovery and a still difficult external trade environment. China will have to navigate its role in the new Covid-19 normal while balancing both growth and financial stability in its own recovery. It will also be balancing its domestic and international agendas as it pursues the ‘dual-circulation’ strategy.
