China's Strategic Repositioning towards Africa (in French)

 Thierry Pairault has translated a Chinese document to French titled "As 'Decoupling' Intensifies, Africa Is the Key to China's Breakthrough: Reflections from a Closed-Door Meeting" and subtitled "La Russie, l'Ukraine et le 'repositionnement' strategique de la Chine vers l'Afrique."

The Chinese document is the report of a symposium held on 27 May 2022 held under the aegis of the journal Culture and the Association for Research in Eurasian Systems Science.  In their reflections, references to the Russia-Ukraine conflict are an opportunity to urge a revision of China's international strategy that more effectively counters the West led by the United States.  Africa plays a key role.
