You are cordially invited to join a webinar hosted by The European Think Tank Network on China (ETNC) to launch its most recent report: ‘China’s Soft Power in Europe: Falling on Hard Times’. ETNC takes a unique approach to investigating Sino-European relations: every year, the network compiles state-of-the-art insights from researchers from 21 European countries on a specific and relevant theme. By means of this bottom-up, cross-European approach, ETNC has this year delved into China soft power approach to various European countries during the last decade, distilling them into the main trends for Europe as a whole. For more info on the ETNC approach and earlier reports, covering prescient topics such as the impact of COVID-19 on Sino-European relations, see: www.etnc.info.
