China and Latin America, explained: A conversation with Parsifal D’Sola

Have you ever wondered why China’s presence in Latin America has grown so quickly? Why are governments across the region turning to Chinese investment, and how does this shape power, influence, and resilience today? In this four-part interview series, Experts of the Americas speaks with leading China–Latin America specialists to unpack what’s driving this shift. We explore a more multipolar region where investment, supply chains, and security cooperation double as tools of influence. In this episode, Parsifal D’Sola, Executive Director of the Andres Bello Foundation and nonresident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub joins Miguel Escoto, young global professional, to break down why Latin American countries lean into Chinese-funded ports, energy projects, and resource extraction. We examine high-profile cases, public perceptions versus elite decisions, and what these projects mean in the context of great power competition.
