The report looks at eight
national cases and provides
a regional analysis of China’s
presence in SEE
China has shifted the discourse
on SEE towards geoeconomic
competition, thereby also
contributing to a change in
thinking among stakeholders
in the region
SEE countries’ engagement with
China will remain shaped by
their imperative of not hurting
the region’s links to the EU,
and the US
