Podcast: China's Belt and Road Initiative

Dr Oliver Hartwich
2 May, 2024

In this podcast episode, Oliver and Nick discuss their recent report on China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and its implications for New Zealand.


They caution that while BRI investments could potentially help fund New Zealand's large infrastructure deficit, the country needs to be very careful about engagement to avoid becoming locked into China's geopolitical sphere of influence.


You can find their report "Belt and Road Initiative: Implications for New Zealand" here.
