    China in Africa: October 2024
    Chinese diplomatic developments abounded across the African continent throughout October, including the implementation of new China-Africa partnerships in the wake of last month’s Forum on China-Africa Cooperation summit and business-as-usual investments in innovation, sustainable development, and infrastructure. The month culminated with the 2024 summit of the intergovernmental bloc BRICS in Kazan, Russia, where President Vladimir Putin was joined by BRICS heads of state and a slew of hopefuls.

    Designing a Broader National Security Approach: A Conversation With the Commission on the National Defense Strategy
    Play
    Panelists discuss the findings of the Commission on the National Defense Strategy Report, including the evolving security threats from China and its aligned partners: Russia, Iran, and North Korea. The Commission explores the need for the United States to strengthen its deterrence and response strategies by using all elements of national power, including diplomacy, investment, and commercial strategies, along with the critical role U.S. alliances play in shaping global competition. The U.S. Congress created the Commission on the National Defense Strategy in the Fiscal Year 2022 National Defense Authorization Act as an independent body charged with assessing the 2022 National Defense Strategy. Its members are non-governmental experts in national security. The Commission released its final report on July 29, 2024. RAND contributed analytic and administrative support.
