#China overseas police/law enforcement remains under-researched, yet expanding. Here are my thoughts below. @ChinaGSProject @SCMPNews @AndrewSErickson @BLKChinaCaucus @RWGreen2 @USCC_GOV @ACCORD_online @CedricdeConing @JDevermont

#China police engagements occur with greater frequency/intensity than #China military ones. @AndrewSErickson @CAAC_Network @thechinaproj @witschinaafrica africacenter.org/spotlight/chin…
Over 2000 #Africa-n police/law enforcement /paramilitaries have trained in China since 2018. A growing area of #Chinese security cooperation. @newvisionwire @SophieHRW @hrw africacenter.org/spotlight/chin…
In addition to technical disciplines, #China police training entails political and ideological training consistent with the Chinese Communist Party model @chinafricastudy @StimsonCenter @CarnegieEndow @Hangwei_Li africacenter.org/spotlight/chin…

Composition of #China delegation at the Xi-Biden meeting in Bali speaks volumes. Not as high-powered as suggested. Quick analysis in successive tweets below---@alykhansatchu @ChinaGSProject @christiangeraud @CAAC_Network @RWGreen2 @AndrewSErickson @hmryder @LBenabdallah
Only one member from the new Politburo Standing Committee, Ding Xuexiang, who is now the 6th-ranked member. Next in seniority is Wang Yi, promoted to the 25-member Politburo and takes over from Yang Jiechi as top diplomat.
For this to be high-powered, it would have included, at a minimum, 3 more members of the new Standing Committee--Li Qiang (2nd ranked after Xi), Zhao Leji (3rd ranked), and Wang Huning (4th-ranked). Wang spent a lot of time in the U.S. and is the architect of Xi's ideology

Let's discuss #China #Africa relations & #China 20th Ntl Congress. Continuity, change, more of same? Part 2 in thread below. Part 1 in previous post. @ChinaGSProject @BLKChinaCaucus @AndrewSErickson @CedricdeConing @ACCORD_online @RWGreen2 @CAAC_Network @Cavinceworld @kingsepp
While #China will prioritize Taiwan, E/S China Seas, US, marginalization of #Africa/Global South is unlikely. The answer is in Xi's phrase "China leading the reform of global governance" which was adopted at 2018 Foreign Affairs' Work Conference. @ChinaGSProject
In Xi's political report to the 20th Congress, Taiwan appears 25 times. "Global" appears 38 times. While Africa/Global South not specifically mentioned, about 85% of issues discussed under "Global" are issues of the Global South, and Chinese leadership there.

Let's discuss #China #Africa relations in light of #China 20th Ntl Congress. Continuity, change, more of same? Some answers in thread below @alykhansatchu @VOAAfrica @CAAC_Network @ChinaGSProject @BLKChinaCaucus @AfricaACSS @CedricdeConing @LBenabdallah @RWGreen2 @NationAfrica
A very interesting (and in my opinion, worthwhile) debate has emerged as to whether #Africa/Global South will be marginalized as @China dials up pressure on Taiwan reunification, Western Pacific, and U.S.
This is an entirely valid assessment that one of my good friends, Eric Olander discussed in the post below. But some nuance is required. See my additional comments in the next post after reading this.
