ELN Senior Associate Fellow Roxane Farmanfarmaian captures the core findings in this report.

In this article, originally published in Danish by the Berlingske newspaper, Mogens Lykketoft provides context on the visit and argues the US and China need to rein in their rivalry in the interests of the rest of the world.
