What the delayed opening of China-North Korea bridge says about their ties | DW News
Episode details
Episode description
A border bridge delayed for 12 years has finally opened between China and North Korea. At first glance it looks like an infrastructure story. In reality, it may signal a new phase in the strategic competition for influence over North Korea. With Russia and China both trying to deepen ties with Kim Jong Un, this crossing has become a symbol of a much larger geopolitical contest. DW's Biresh Banerjee talks to Edward Howell, a lecturer in international relations at the University of Oxford and author of "A New Axis of Upheaval." #China #NorthKorea #Explainer #dwnews For more news go to: http://www.dw.com/en/ Follow DW on social media: ►Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dwnews ►TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dwnews ►Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deutschewellenews/ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/dwnews ►Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/DWNews/ Für Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https://www.youtube.com/dwdeutsch Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1
