Revival of the Silk Road; What is the grand project of "Belt and Road Initiative"?
The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a long-term transcontinental policy and investment program that aims to develop infrastructure and accelerate the economic integration of countries along the historic Silk Road.
This initiative was unveiled by Chinese President Xi Jinping in 2013 and is known as "One Belt, One Road" until 2016. The "Belt and Road Initiative" promotes the connectivity of the continents of Asia, Europe, and Africa and its adjacent seas, establishes and strengthens cooperation between countries along the path of One Belt, One Road, creates comprehensive, multi-layered and hybrid communication networks.
The "Belt and Road Initiative" is a global megaproject, but due to its location on the historical Silk Road, it has a special focus on Asia, East Africa, Eastern Europe and the Middle East, which includes countries with emerging markets. Currently, 71 countries are participating in this initiative, which accounts for one-third of the gross domestic product and two-thirds of the world's population.
"Belt and Road Initiative" has designed three initiatives that are related and complementary due to the strategic integration of the regions under this plan:
1) The Silk Road Economic Belt, which is a long-term land perspective for Eurasian infrastructure development and economic cooperation, includes six development corridors, which are: 1) New Eurasian Land Bridge Economic Corridor (NELBEC), 2) China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor (CMREC), 3) China-Central Asia-West Asia Economic Corridor (CCWAEC), 4) China-India-China Peninsula Economic Corridor (CICPEC), Bangladesh-China Economic Corridor India-Myanmar (BCIMEC) and 6) China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
2) The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road connects China to Southeast Asia, Indonesia, India, the Arabian Peninsula, Somalia, Egypt and Europe and includes the South China Sea, the Malacca Strait, the Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea, Persian Gulf, and Red Sea.
3) The Polar Silk Road In 2018, the Information Office of the State Council of the People's Republic of China committed to actively participate in Arctic affairs in an official report (white paper) titled "China's Arctic Policies". This document is a blueprint for China's strategy in the Arctic and the development of the Arctic Silk Road under the Belt and Road Initiative agenda.
