<br/><br/> One of the most notable foreign policy decisions China has made under the leadership of Xi Jinping was the Belt <br/>                                   and Road Initiative, which has spanned the entire Eurasian continent and Africa. In addition, the world is also seeing <br/>                                   a more powerful China with increasing proactiveness in key aspects of international life under Xi, characterizing a <br/>                                   new generation of Chinese leadership. Xiʼs proactive approach in the international stage is in accordance with his <br/>                                   vision of Chinaʼs rise to the center of global economic life and in playing a bigger role in global governance. To <br/>                                   better understand and explain China’s series of bold foreign policy moves under Xi, this study seeks to explore what <br/>                                   the Xi administration has inherited from the previous Chinese leaderships and where it has deviated in terms of <br/>                                   foreign policy decision-making and instruments of implementation. It goes further to explore the possible rationale <br/>                                   behind such continuity and change. It argues that it is the interplay of both the external and internal sources of <br/>                                  Chinaʼs foreign policy that has contributed to explaining the change and continuity in Chinaʼs foreign policy under <br/>                                  the Xi administration.<br/><br/>
