Si Pékin et New Delhi cherchent aujourd'hui à étendre leur influence à travers le champ stratégique birman, il semble que cela soit bien plus pour des raisons propres aux deux géants que le fruit d'une volonté de contrecarrer systématiquement les ambitions de l'autre, et d'y faire échec au "rival".

A New Moment for Central Europe? Regional Cooperation in a Time of European Strategic Choices
Recent political developments in Central Europe have revived the debate about the future of regional cooperation and the Visegrád Group. Changes in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, together with Austria’s growing interest in closer cooperation with its neighbours, could create new opportunities for dialogue and coordination around shared priorities.

What once looked like a stable architecture now appears fragile, contested, and in places actively being dismantled.
