This publication contends that under the Trump administration, the US approach towards China has been one of blanket opposition to any Chinese-initiated projects, including the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and related investments. However, this publication argues that trying to galvanize other countries to decouple from the world’s second largest economy and block Chinese investments is counter-productive. As such, allies such as Israel should instead adopt a more balanced policy towards Chinese investments, one which protects against national security risks but is also open to foreign investments and economic growth.
