| Summary |
China's main interests in relation to international terrorism are ensuring domestic stability in its ethnically troubled Xinjiang region, promoting regional stability in key resource and export markets, and protecting its citizens and businesses abroad. Beijing's primary response to international terrorism has been to strengthen its domestic counterterrorism capabilities by passing and implementing new national security and counterterrorism laws, increasing policing and social control in Xinjiang, and engaging in bilateral and multilateral counterterrorism efforts. Primary constraints on further engagement are its focus on domestic terrorism, long-held principles of nonintervention and noninterference, a desire to prevent backlash that results in more targeting of Chinese citizens at home and abroad, and limited military capability. As China's global economic and political footprint grows, it will likely increasingly be the target and victim of international terrorist acts. In the foreseeable future, it is unlikely China will become a major actor in fighting global terrorism and US-China cooperation in counterterrorism activities will remain limited. |
