China and Asia security

China presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities for global governance, economic development, as well as security and stability, which impacts Europe and the broader international community.

• China and regional security in Asia
• China’s impact on regional and international norms
• China’s arms control and non-proliferation commitments
• Chinese–European cooperation in traditional and non-traditional security
• China’s military modernization and evolving nuclear deterrence posture
• China’s advances and policies in cyberspace and emerging technologies
• China’s relations with its neighbours in North East Asia, South East Asia, South Asia and Central Asia
