Chinese Cooperation: between Foreign Policy and Demands of Domestic Economy
China has become the largest partner of South-South cooperation. Through cooperation, China seeks to build a good reputation to improve its international status. At the same time, since many raw materials is required to meet the growing supply demand of the Chinese domestic market, sourcing from the overseas market is also pushing cooperation. Win-win planning that seeks to achieve mutual benefits highlights the negotiation process and the search for complementary advantages when resolving conflicts over international affairs. The central objective of this article is to evaluate Chinese cooperation from the point of view of aid effectiveness, resolution of internal problems and international relations. The effectiveness of Chinese cooperation is hampered due to the partiality of its motivations. Although its policy may have an impact on the economic development of the beneficiary countries, the consideration of practical internal benefits prevails over the objectives for international development
