Engaging China in Arms Control
Tue, March 8th, 2022
Live Online
China is dramatically enhancing its nuclear arsenal and military capabilities. Practitioners in the United States, Japan and elsewhere increasingly wonder what could motivate Chinese leaders to explore arms control as a way to mitigate the costs and instabilities of arms racing and potential conflict.
We invite you to a two-part discussion of this challenge on March 8, from 19:00 to 20:30 EST.
Carnegie does not take institutional positions on public policy issues; the views represented herein are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of Carnegie, its staff, or its trustees.
