China’s One Belt and One Road (OBOR) initiative, which envisages the deeper integration of Asia, Russia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa is gaining further international attention, according to Spanish researcher Augusto Soto, the founder of the Dialogue with China Project media platform.

“Following recent attacks in Paris, Turkey, Lebanon and Sinai together with an increase of terrorist activity in several countries included in or bordering OBOR’s space, sophisticated technical, diplomatic and defense factors are bound to influence the initiative and its absolute significance,” Soto remarks in his article for Strategic Culture Foundation.

The researcher stresses that the China-led initiative again came into focus during both the APEC summit in the Philippines and the G20 summit in Turkey.

According to Soto, Beijing is seeking to play a more active role in global affairs, insisting that the OBOR initiative will help the Eurasian region to ensure stability and security.

He quotes China’s Vice Finance Minister, Zhu Guangyou, who said during the G20 summit in Antalya: “It will be of important economic and political significance for us to ensure the sustainable, balanced and strong economic growth, and also deliver on the UN pledge that by the year 2030 poverty should be eradicated worldwide, because we believe this will eliminate the soil that breeds terrorism.”
Recession, economic imbalance and income inequality, let alone Europe’s ongoing refugee crisis, may create new difficulties, the researcher warns.

However, the China-led project is likely to provide the nations with an opportunity to bolster development and overcome longstanding recession.

“In spite of some reasonable but mainly unfair criticism of the initiative, each of the EU leaders visiting China over the last weeks has made explicit commitments to actively participate in OBOR. Not bad, taking into account that even growing clearly at less than 7% a year, China is likely to become the largest overseas investor by 2020. Then its global offshore assets are expected to reach $20 trillion,” Soto underscores.



One of the significant sources of funds for the fascist Nazionist Jesuit Khazarian Mafia is the healthcare industry which registered a whopping $3.09 trillion in 2014, and is projected to soar to $3.57 trillion in 2017, in the US alone.
