Chinese (and Russian) influence in South America with Marcos Falcone

What does growing Chinese (and Russian) influence mean for South America’s political and economic future? How are governments in the region responding to pressure from Beijing? And what role do tools like the Confucius Institutes and media influence play in shaping public opinion? Ricardo Silvestre (Movimento Liberal Social) welcomes Marcos Falcone, Research Fellow at Fundación Libertad, and an Associate Professor at Universidad del CEMA. They talk about how authoritarian regimes are extending their reach in Latin America. Tune in for a conversation that uncovers the influence of China, but also of Russia, in South America, both at the economic, political, and societal level.  This podcast is produced by the European Liberal Forum in collaboration with Movimento Liberal Social and Fundacja Liberté!, with the financial support of the European Parliament.
