Think Tank Weekly
(April 5 - April 12, 2024)
Introduction to France and Italy
Think Tank Weekly is a newly established column in France and Italy, whose main work is to track the research reports published by major think tanks in Europe and the United States, and present the strategies and forward-looking thinking of European and American think tanks on global issues. This column is planned to be tracked and updated every week, because the column is still under construction, the tracked think tanks and topics are still improving, and I hope to hear more feedback and suggestions from readers.
