On Tuesday 4 March PRIO hosted a roundtable discussion on Chinese perspectives on global developments. The roundtable was organised by PRIO on the occasion of the official visit to Norway by a Chinese delegation led by Mr Lu Kang, Vice Minister of the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (IDCPC). The delegation met with a group of Norwegian scholars representing several academic institutions in the Oslo area.

Among the topics discussed were China-Norway relations, the recent geopolitical changes, the future of multilateralism, and global hotspots such as Ukraine and the Middle East. The roundtable was chaired by PRIO Director Henrik Urdal.
