The Stripe and The Route: a commitment to development and multilateralism
['Please Enter Your Name Here']
Date: None

In a world, where a declining megapower uses the dollar as an economic weapon to exercise global hegemony (imposing rules or breaking them as the case may be) with corrections to vassals and punishments to unproudless; there is news that, when they arrive, transmit hope.

The initiative of the Strip and the Silk Road implicitly involves the strategic presence of China

It’s not about being naive. The initiative of the Strip and the Silk Road implicitly involves the strategic presence of China (as it was in the original concept) this time along what is shaping up as the largest trans-continental economic channel for investment in transport and other infrastructures.

But you have to be blind to NOT see the commercial synergy that takes shape there, based on consensuses and commitments that are honored, without solo awards, zero tolerance for corruption and a “green” policy attentive to ecology.

Chinese invitation to reinterpret the economic relations of this century? A new collaboration scheme for inclusive development? Why not?

Technology and knowledge can and should be used in favor of peoples, not as private assets.

The initiative finds rationale in multi-lateralism and open door policy

Unlike the economic clubs under aegis of the United States, this initiative finds rationale in multi-lateralism and open-door policy. Investments are planned in more than 65 states, 124 countries have signed agreements, consolidation approaches with a Europe that looks to the United States, yes, but that understands that there are proposals that are NOT rejected.

On the other hand, Washington (the great absentee in this fight) is afraid of the idea of ​​rewriting the global economic model. He sees hidden conspiracies and abuses of power everywhere; but he is careful to exempt himself from any examination of conscience. Of course, Chinese President Xi Jinping dedicates special messages to him, such as the one that says that extreme protectionism finds a correlate in the image of the closed room: the outside may not affect, but neither does the air and the light enter.

Latin America fights for economic sovereignty Thus, in the middle of this confrontation of visions and senses, inscribed in the logic of reconfiguration of powers, Latin America must know where its steps point. In the region, there are governments that await Trump’s mood swings to make decisions. But there are others who fight for economic sovereignty, for the search for new markets, for diversifying exports, for convincing with their human capital. The latter, sanctioned by the United States, blocked, attacked, spoke loud and clear in Beijing.

Who says that people are measured only by their size?
