China’s Domestic Transformation and Global Security Impact by 2025 | Feng Zhu | TEDxKFAS

International relations expert Dr. Zhu Feng sheds light on the future of China, underlining that China will remain a “transformative power” in the next ten years. He stresses that there will be no dramatic change in China’s political system while it struggles for domestic security and continues to expand its international influence. Dr. Zhu Feng suggests that Beijing’s security implications to the world and the region will be complicated and multifaceted. He predicts that China-US relations will be cooperative and competitive at the same time. Pointing to China’s sequential efforts to embark on regional economic and trade integration process, Dr. Zhu Feng asserts that a more decisive impact of China will come from its economy.
