The Asian country, currently the most relevant economic partner for Chile, receives more than 35% of Chilean exports
The director of the Millennium Nucleus ICLAC, Francisco Urdinez in conservation with Tomás Mosciatti of BioBio Chile, talks about the impacts of China in Latin America, current tensions, and economic growth strategies of the Asian giant
Regarding the development and advancement of new technology, Urdinez pointed out that part of the geopolitical and geoeconomic dispute between China and the United States today is in technologies that will define the global economy for the next twenty years.
“China has had a considerable delay but is interested in strengthening that aspect because it is where power will be settled in the coming years,” he discussed.
When asked about the Chinese development model and the possibility of exporting it to other regions, Dr. Urdinez pointed out that regardless of whether there is a desire to do so, "it is true that it is a country that has had tremendous success in generating economic opportunities in regions of the Global South,mostly promoting state companies and generating infrastructure agreements and regional development. That is a very attractive model for impoverished countries. Therein lies the greatest attraction of the Chinese development model”.
