metadata.value: The China-Russia relations are facing a changing external environment, including the Indo-
  Pacific. This article focuses on the EU Indo-Pacific Strategy, which is a new and little-researched
  theme. It aims to address a central question: what the implications of the EU Indo-Pacific
  Strategy on the China-Russia relations are. It focuses on the discourse of the EU’s supranational
  authorities. The qualitative content analysis of that discourse unveils that the nature of
  this strategy is to enhance the legitimacy and uniqueness of the EU as a global player. It argues
  that this strategy has important implications for both China and Russia in direct or indirect
  ways. One main assumption is that the EU’s impact will be more concentrated in low politics
  than high politics. This article develops two hypotheses. One is that the EU Indo-Pacific Strategy
  will enhance the West as external pressure to China and Russia in the region, especially on
  low political issues. The other is that increasing external pressure from the EU and the West
  in this region highlights the necessity of cooperation between China and Russia. It concludes
  that while the implications for China and Russia are different respectively, the EU’s ambition
  as an exogenous factor will compel China and Russia to uplift their bilateral ties.
