The Diplomat: The resumption of exchange programs is conducive to the resumption of U.S.-China relations

On November 29, The Diplomat published Colleen O'Connor and Elizabeth Lynch's article "Want to Restart U.S.-China Relations?" Let's resume the Fulbright China program! 》。The authors advocate the resumption of the Fulbright China Program to promote the reopening of U.S.-China relations and the expansion of educational exchanges. The sharp decline in the number of U.S. students in China is creating a gap in expertise that threatens America's long-term ability to navigate the complex U.S.-China geopolitical landscape. If Biden wants to close this gap, the key to success lies in increasing the number of Americans with first-hand experience in China. The Fulbright China Program can train U.S. professionals with an in-depth understanding of China, which will have a long-term impact on U.S. foreign policy and China.
