"Emerging economies remain underrepresented in global governance institutions."
Those were the words of Beijing's foreign minister as he presented China's new white paper.
He argued global governance should be more equitable and the role of the United Nations should be strengthened.
In Beijing's stated view, all countries should have an equal voice in global affairs.
China's call comes as the world is engulfed in many armed conflicts and facing serious economic challenges.
But is Beijing now presenting itself as a leader of the Global South?
And will it be able to garner enough support to play that role?

Presenter: Sami Zeidan

Guests:
Steve Tsang, Director of the SOAS China Institute

Cobus van Staden, Head of Research at the China-Global South Project

Allen Carlson, Associate Professor in the Government Department at Cornell University
