An Indian think tank has warned of China’s expanding influence in the United Nations and its specialized agencies, with the international organization playing a role in promoting Beijing’s foreign policy initiatives.
“China is present either as the head or a deputy position in almost all the critical international agencies,” according to a May 27 report by the Mumbai-based foreign policy think tank Gateway House: Indian Council on Global Relations. The report highlights Beijing’s manipulation of global development, international rulemaking, digital and scientific standards, and multilateralism.
