Last week was inaugural W&M China Conference hosted by @williamandmary, @AidData, @global_wm. Nice to see scholars, policy practitioners, and business leaders here in Williamsburg. Thanks for leadership from @samanthajcuster, @MalikAmmar, and Brad Parks. #WMChinaConference 1/3
“Soft power is not just what you do on the non-military or non-economic front — it’s also an attractiveness, which is intangible, and that gives the United States an enormous influence,” @AmbDMitchell adds. #WMChinaConference
The US government cannot uphold democratic ideals and confront modern challenges on its own, Johnny Walsh of @USAID said. Other partners — from researchers to journalists to humanitarians to local officials — are also necessary drivers, he shares. #WMChinaConference
"The US became very complacent post-Cold War… we believe that wars end, but adversaries don’t,” says @AmbDMitchell of @NDI at the inaugural #WMChinaConference. https://t.co/O6xxNumF0c
“The perception of authoritarian encroachment itself has rallied democracies around the world," with new democratic openings happen every year, says @johnnybwalsh of @USAID at #WMChinaConference.
“Democracy is not unpopular. People want more democracy, not less — almost no matter where you survey,” Walsh said. “In its best moments, the US sticks up not just for democracy but for basic human dignity. Every time we undermine that, our core suffers.” #WMChinaConference
“To me, at the largest geo-strategic level, the US's biggest tool is an idea. Part of that idea is that government is by and for the people, which is much more legitimate than these terrible alternatives,” Johnny Walsh of @USAID explains. #WMChinaConference

To preserve UN ideals, @ZygisPavilionis advises the US to “Stop shaking hands with dictators,” warning “You’re creating an enemy that will destroy you.” #WMChinaConference
“When America is standing for democracy, everything goes right,” @ZygisPavilionis said. “If you start appeasing autocracies, they grow big. The problem is America is waking up so late.” #WMChinaConference
“32 years ago we voted against the Soviet Union … and started rebuilding. That wouldn’t have happened without American support,” @zygispavilionis, Lithuanian Member of Parliament + Former Ambassador of Lithuania to the U.S. and Mexico shared at #WMChinaConference.

The keynote conversations (open to the #public and #media) are being recorded and will be made available after #WMChinaConference has concluded—keep an eye out for those if you were not able to join us in-person in Williamsburg! @global_wm

had a great time joining @gyude_moore + Brad Parks for a panel at @williamandmary inaugural @AidData conference on China #WMChinaConference, thanks for having me @samanthajcuster!
When @S_Rabinovitch asked what the US can do that China cannot, @Mushahid replied “The US has a lot to offer still, but they have to get their act together.” He pointed to market access and top-quality education as key strengths. #WMChinaConference
The first keynote conversation, titled “Reimagining U.S. Economic Statecraft in an Era of Contested Cooperation with China” is now underway. Moderator @S_Rabinovitch says “China has gone beyond being a stakeholder. Now, it's a power broker.”
