South Asian and Southeast Asian countries are located in the southwest of China, which is an important direction for China’s peripheral diplomacy and building a community of peripheral destiny. The Indian Ocean-Pacific Region is a key strategic channel for China to acquire energy, resources and commodity markets, and it is also a key region for the promotion of the Belt and Road Initiative to advance. The US “Indo- Pacific Strategy” has highlighted the central position of Southeast Asia, which has exerted an influence on South Asian Southeast Asian countries and China’s relations with South Asian Southeast Asia. China needs to pay closer attention to the geopolitical changes of neighboring countries in the southwest, develop cooperative relations with South Asian and Southeast Asian countries and promote friendly exchanges through multiple channels.
