China's Outreach to Political Parties in North Africa and Middle East

 The South China Morning Post published on 14 August 2023 an article titled "How China's Communist Party Seeks to Win Friends and Influence Through Mideast Political Groups" by Zhao Ziwen.  

The Communist Party of China (CPC) recently reached out to political parties in North Africa and the Middle East.  More than 60 party leaders and think tank representatives from 19 countries were invited to the dialogue in China, which has been held every two years since 2016.  At this event, the CPC promotes its governance model to Arab countries as a path to development.
