WHY Western Leaders Are Suddenly Lining Up to Visit China

Описание: Over the past several months, Western leaders who spent years warning about China have begun traveling to Beijing in growing numbers — openly, publicly, and with senior business delegations in tow.
At first glance, this looks like a thaw in relations or a softening of attitudes toward China. But that interpretation is misleading.
What is actually happening is not an ideological pivot toward Beijing, but a quiet reassessment of risk — driven by financial uncertainty, political volatility, and growing unease inside the Western alliance itself.
In this episode of GVS Deep Dive, we examine why middle powers like Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, and Finland are re-engaging China now — what changed inside the Western system, how U.S. unpredictability is reshaping global behavior, and why this shift has less to do with China’s rise than with confidence erosion elsewhere.
This is not the collapse of the West. And it is not the triumph of China.
It is a story about hedging, optionality, and a global order that no longer feels as stable as it once did.
