In this video, we break down China’s newly released strategic roadmap for Latin America and the Caribbean, its first major update since 2016, and why it signals a fundamental shift in the global balance of power. This is not just about trade, infrastructure, or diplomacy. This is about multipolarity, the Global South, de-dollarization, and a direct challenge to U.S. dominance in its own backyard.

Beijing is openly framing Latin America as a core pillar of the Global South and a key force in shaping a post-unipolar world order. The language in this document matters. From rejecting “unilateral bullying and hegemony” to promoting a “community with a shared future,” China is making its worldview unmistakably clear.

We’ll explore:
- Why this policy paper is a direct challenge to the Monroe Doctrine
- How China is expanding influence beyond presidents — into political parties, legislatures, and institutions
- The push for de-dollarization, local currency trade, and a parallel financial system
- What the Belt and Road Initiative looks like in its next phase
- Why China is positioning itself not just as an economic partner, but a security partner
- How this strategy collides with U.S. policy toward Venezuela and the region as a whole

This video also dives into the broader implications for U.S.–China rivalry, Latin America’s economic sovereignty, and why Washington is likely to push back hard as Beijing deepens its footprint across the hemisphere.
