The Focus of China’s Belt and Road Initiative

By Martin Armstrong, 

In hosting its third Belt and Road Initiative Forum on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, China is welcoming representatives from around 130 countries for a diplomatic event focused on Xi Jinping’s now ten-year-old signature policy.

While coming in for criticism related to the “accentuated debt distress” it has put some countries under, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has created $1.01 trillion worth of investment and construction projects in 148 countries around the world.
