China’s Belt and Road project, which is aimed at strengthening its
ties with the rest of Asia and beyond, may be primarily about
transport and infrastructure.
Since its launch in 2013, the £750 billion project – sometimes
described as the 21st-century Silk Road in a nod to the ancient
trading route between East and West – has poured money into
schemes that aim to improve links between China, Europe, the
Middle East and Africa by road, rail and sea.
