China's Panda Diplomacy Losing Clout With the United States
Original: China’s Panda Diplomacy Is Losing Its Clout With the U.S.
China's long-standing practice of loaning giant pandas as a symbol of goodwill is reportedly losing its effectiveness in relations with the United States. Publications including the Wall Street Journal argue that the gestures, once a prized tool of Chinese soft power, no longer carry the same weight as bilateral tensions persist and American attitudes toward Beijing harden.
Why now: US-China relations remain tense, prompting debate over whether traditional soft-power gestures like panda loans still work.
