Collaborating with the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), the China-United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF) cohosted a U.S.-China Forum titled “China’s New Economic Plans: Implications for China, Asia, and the Global Economy”. The forum focused on economic issues concerning the two countries, with an emphasis on “One Belt One Road (OBOR)”.
