Melanie Hart, Senior Advisor for China and the Indo-Pacific at the Office of the Undersecretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment, spoke to the Atlantic Council about the role of PRC-linked companies in China’s economic coercion, with a focus on critical infrastructure and logistics networks.
