(Cina-Arabia Saudita-Medio Oriente) La visita di Xi a Riyadh non è dovuta alle cattive relazioni tra Stati Uniti e Arabia Saudita. Si tratta di ben altro (fonte: Jonathan Fulton, Atlantic Council)

Chinese President Xi Jinping was in Riyadh from December 7 to 10, attending three summits and inspiring thousands of over-wrought headlines about what it means for the United States’ interests in the Middle East. Given the bad state of US-Saudi relations, it is natural to see Xi’s visit in the context of geopolitical competition between Washington and Beijing, but that framework misses the bigger picture. This trip was part of a much longer trajectory of deepening China-Middle East relations in which ties with several regional countries have become increasingly mature.

No, Xi’s visit to Riyadh wasn’t because of bad US-Saudi relations. It’s about much more. – Atlantic Council
