Johanna Gunthild Brigida Rust will present “New Perspectives on Energy Security in EU-China Relations: The Case of Central Asia”.

Abstract: As a consequence of the 2018 EU-Asia Connectivity Strategy and the New EU Central Asian Strategy of 2019, the European Union (EU) attempts to fulfil long-awaited expectations to position itself with concrete approaches towards Central Asia. Energy is an important commodity to the EU and China. Major national security concerns are involved, such as for natural gas supply sources. Significant differences among the EU´s and China´s approaches towards Central Asia are observed in several studies, which introduce challenges for the EU.

Research Seminars are a place where faculty and research assistants share completed research and work in progress. They receive valuable feedback to strengthen their research preparing them for conference presentations and publications. On occasion, visiting researchers from outside the University share their work. Research Seminars are open to public.

We hope to see you on Monday.
