Xi Jiping sai bastante mal na fotografia...
China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), an
enormous international investment project touted by Chinese President Xi
Jinping, was supposed to establish Chinese soft power. Since late 2013, Beijing
has poured nearly $700 billion worth of Chinese money into more than sixty
countries (according to research by RWR Advisory), much of it in the form of
large-scale infrastructure projects and loans to governments that would
otherwise struggle to pay for them. The idea was to draw these countries closer
to Beijing while boosting Chinese soft power abroad. Far from expanding Chinese
soft power, the BRI appears to be achieving the opposite.
