Tom Keatinge, Director of RUSI’s Centre for Financial Crime, and David Carlisle, Associate Fellow, spoke at the European Parliament’s Special Committee on Terrorism. They presented the findings of their paper (authored with RUSI Research Analyst Florence Keen), commissioned by the Parliament's Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs.

A clear differentiation is required between trade and technology wars, Huawei and politicised arrests of foreign nationals. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is deliberately confusing them, and President Trump is not helping.
