China's President Xi Jinping is making moves in the Middle East as he meets with Arab leaders to strengthen ties & showcase China's growing influence in the region. With a focus on building relationships & expanding cooperation, this meeting highlights China's 'soft power' strategy at play. Is this a signal of a shift in global power dynamics, potentially marking the decline of US dominance in the region?
Join me as I delve into China's master plan in the Middle East and its implications on the world stage.
