In late 2020, the death toll was rising in Brazil, Ecuador, and Peru, as well as in other countries in the region. Europe and the United States had secured millions of vaccines, but these doses were not reaching Latin America. Here, China detected both a political and economic opportunity. Today, almost all Latin American countries are vaccinating their populations with Chinese vaccines, no questions asked.<\/p>\n<p>A family member, friend, or even your child&#8217;s teacher has probably already had their dose of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/BBIBP-CorV\">Sinopharm<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/CoronaVac\">CoronaVac\u00a0<\/a>(Sinovac). However, the \u201cvaccine diplomacy,\u201d as experts have named this policy, is just the latest chapter in China&#8217;s growing interest in the region. This can be seen in the recent emergence of the Latin American chapter of China&#8217;s huge infrastructure and investment project known as the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Belt_and_Road_Initiative\">New Silk Road<\/a>, which has been advancing over the last four years in the region, to the indifference of former U.S. President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>At first, Beijing extended its influence over Latin American raw materials. China subsequently began financing large infrastructure projects (mainly focused on energy) and, finally, it granted loans to countries that would otherwise not have been able to obtain financing in the international market.<\/p>\n<p>China was at first interested in the food products that it still purchases from Brazil and Argentina but later diversified its portfolio to other countries in the region such as Ecuador, where China financed large energy projects. Venezuela&#8217;s anti-US stance has brought the country closer to China, which became its largest lender. As the old saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. Before the pandemic, China had already begun to build strong relationships with Mexico, Chile, and Peru\u2014countries with large domestic markets\u2014to invest in their service sectors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you sit with a powerful nation such as China, it brings a huge investment portfolio to the table. In this context, vaccines are just another topic on the agenda,\u201d says Federico Merke, Professor of International Relations at the University of San Andr\u00e9s in Argentina. \u201cChina has a very strong presence in Latin America, which has been steadily growing over the last 10 years. Doing business with China brings both opportunity and risk. The opportunities include access to vaccines, but the risks involve associating yourself with a country that does not respect human rights, that does not care about protecting the environment and that has no qualms about accepting or paying bribes,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Federico Urdinez, an expert on China at the Catholic University of Chile, conducted a study in seven Latin American countries, asking participants about their perceptions of China. Those interviewed tended to give the same answer: coronavirus. Memories of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/pandemics-coronavirus-pandemic-wuhan-china-asia-pacific-bdd16f4306888dd33fe696f0fa468e9d\">Wuhan<\/a>\u00a0market were clearly still fresh in the minds of many Latin Americans, who blamed China for the hardships that they were still suffering.<\/p>\n<p>Urdinez concluded that initially, China&#8217;s \u201cmask diplomacy,\u201d which involved donations of face masks that arrived in Latin America during the worst months of the pandemic, did not work. However, when the Catholic University of Chile repeated the study several months later, opinions changed. \u201cThe reputational damage that they had not been able to reverse with masks, they did with vaccines. China&#8217;s public image has now improved among Latin Americans,\u201d Urdinez explained.<\/p>\n<p>Brazil, the world&#8217;s largest producer of soybeans, sold 80 per cent of its total production to China in 2019. On the other hand, Brazil handed over control of 13 commercial ports to Chinese investors and now plans to hand over another 15. Argentina also sells 80 per cent of its soybeans to China, while the Asian giant invests in hydrocarbons and grants the county loans to build trains and ports.<\/p>\n<p>Chile&#8217;s coastline in the Pacific Basin has enabled the country to sign a free trade agreement with China, which became one of Chile&#8217;s main investors in energy and lithium. What&#8217;s more, China is already Bolivia&#8217;s leading creditor, while Venezuela received more from Beijing than any other country: payments exceeded $62 billion, according to data from the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedialogue.org\/analysis\/what-did-maduro-accomplish-on-his-trip-to-china\/\">Inter-American Dialogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, for now, China&#8217;s vaccine diplomacy seems to be working. \u201cIn ten years\u2019 time, we are all sure to remember who helped us during the coronavirus crisis. Was it Angela Merkel, Emmanuel Macron, or John [Joe] Biden? No. Only China helped Latin America and the countries in the region all began dancing to China&#8217;s tune, not due to shared ideologies but due to the desire to resolve an unprecedented problem,\u201d says\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dialogochino.net\/en\/authors\/enrique-dussel-peters\/#:~:text=Enrique%20Dussel%20Peters%20is%20head,(Red%20ALC%2DChina).\">Enrique Dussel Peters<\/a>, coordinator of the Latin American Academic Network on China.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, such soft-power diplomacy can also give China a political, as well as an economic payoff. After all, Brazil&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jair_Bolsonaro\">Jair Bolsonaro<\/a>, the Latin American president who had most resisted the onslaught of Chinese investment, backtracked on his plan to bar\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Huawei\">Huawei<\/a>\u00a0from the country&#8217;s 5G network auctions. Such business is much coveted by the biggest players in the telecommunications market, and many countries have boycotted the Shenzhen-based firm.\u00a0Bolsonaro&#8217;s about-turn on Huawei occurred a few days after Brazil received the raw materials from China to manufacture the CoronaVac in Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it is merely trade or geopolitical expansion, the desperation for vaccines and the absence of the United States in ensuring that doses reach poorer countries had created a window of opportunity for China to continue its expansion.\u00a0China has been committed to Latin America for decades and is using vaccine diplomacy to strengthen its presence in the region.\u00a0Everything seems to indicate that, after many years of cultivating its influence in Latin America, China now seems set to take on a leading role in the region.<\/p>\n<p>Stay Safe!!<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wpcf7 no-js\" id=\"wpcf7-f16536-o1\" lang=\"\" dir=\"ltr\" data-wpcf7-id=\"16536\">\n<div class=\"screen-reader-response\"><p role=\"status\" aria-live=\"polite\" aria-atomic=\"true\"><\/p> <ul><\/ul><\/div>\n<form action=\"\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31299#wpcf7-f16536-o1\" method=\"post\" class=\"wpcf7-form init\" aria-label=\"Contact form\" novalidate=\"novalidate\" data-status=\"init\">\n<fieldset class=\"hidden-fields-container\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7\" value=\"16536\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_version\" value=\"6.1.6\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_locale\" value=\"\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_unit_tag\" value=\"wpcf7-f16536-o1\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_container_post\" value=\"0\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_posted_data_hash\" value=\"\" \/>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p><B><I>Sign Up for our Newsletter:<\/i><\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>Your Name (required)\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"your-name\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"text\" name=\"your-name\" \/><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>Your Email (required)\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"your-email\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-email wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-email\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"email\" name=\"your-email\" \/><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p><input class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit has-spinner\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Send\" \/>\n<\/p><div class=\"wpcf7-response-output\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China has once again come to the rescue of Latin American countries in their hour of need.
