Worlds Apart | Dragon rising? - Zhang Xin

Despite its allegiance to communism, China’s foreign policy has never been particularly revolutionary. It was more in line with the Dao principle of non-action — doing nothing was seen as more conducive to restoring order than doing a potentially detrimental something. But with the recent release of its vision for bringing peace to Ukraine and security globally, Beijing seems to be gearing up for a more active role in the world.
