China envisions a vast global network of trade, investment and infrastructure that will reshape financial and geopolitical ties — and bring the rest of the world closer to Beijing.
It is a modern-day version of the Marshall Plan, America’s reconstruction effort after World War II, which created a foundation for enduring military and diplomatic alliances. China’s strategy is bolder, more expensive and far riskier.
Its money doesn’t necessarily come with the usual rules. And the cost, for China and its borrowers alike, can sometimes be too high.
We examined nearly 600 projects that China helped finance in the last decade, through billions of dollars in grants, loans and investments. Taken together, they show the scope and motivation of China’s strategy.
41 pipelines and other oil and gas infrastructure help China secure valuable resources.

203 bridges, roads and railways create new ways for China to move its goods around the world.
![]()
199 power plants — for nuclear, natural gas, coal and renewables — give China new markets for its construction and equipment companies.
![]()
We found 112 countries where China has financed projects. While most fall under its infrastructure plan known as the Belt and Road Initiative, Beijing has pushed beyond those boundaries.

After years of honing its construction skills at home, China is now deploying them abroad, including a series of hydroelectric dams.

Beijing is heavily focused on its neighbors, lending them money for extensive road-building projects. Pakistan is running out of money to repay the loans, part of a broader pattern of what critics call China’s “debt trap” diplomacy.

China has a different view when it comes to labor and environmental strictures. To staff overseas projects, Chinese companies have flown in their own workers by the thousands, drawing complaints that they are doing little to create local jobs. Safety standards have been uneven.
And Beijing continues to export polluting technologies like coal-fired power plants, even as such projects have become unpopular in China.
Western governments and multinationals generally steer clear of politically volatile countries. The Chinese government has been less skittish, lending heavily to nations like Venezuela, Nigeria and Zimbabwe.
But China’s lending is not usually largess. Countries that run into financial trouble must renegotiate their loans, putting them deeper into debt. Sometimes projects are left in limbo.

Even a dumbass like you must understand the meaningless of words without substance. During the campaign Dump promised to end, once and for all, these endless and costly wars. Instead, Dump has increased funding for wars and sent in more troops.
Your defense of Dump is typical of a member of a cult- someone who suspends reality to engage in conspiracies and outright lies.

The Asians build these projects without even a thought toward immense environmental damage being inflicted, and they are not being built out of a sense of altruism.
The South Korean government created a fake front company to purchase from Madagascar’s military junta a 99 year lease to convert to agriculture 90% of Madagascar’s remaining forest cover, which now amounts to nothing more than a thin spine running from north to south.

Sorry neder, you can’t reconcile me to your extremism. I am a moderate and a centrist. I am against a global empire. I am against the ZOG element in American culture and politics although I am realistic about it. You are an unintellectual extremist conspiracy addict about it. I am also a collapsenik just not the immediate type. I want to halt all migration and see a world of fences and localism but that does not mesh with your racist cake and eat it world of globalism with a Euro empire flavor that is neocolonial. You want to get back to the old days when Euro whites subjugated cultures of the world. You want to halt migration because your native whites can’t breed enough and are being absorbed genetically into other races. Like that matters that much. Have you ever heard of hybrid vigor? LOL. But yes I agree we need to protect cultures and ethnicities as breeding stock along with cultural integrity. Diverse cultures and ethnicities enrich if properly controlled. The homogenization of globalism is destructive and I am against it. I am against the extremist liberalism that promotes this. I am not a racist. I respect and admire the best of all races and cultures. Some are better than others of course. It depends on what we want to do going forward. .Your culture is already destroyed by globalism. You can’t really fix it without draconian steps and those steps will destroy your affluence. My cry of racism is against a dirty racist bigot wanting to have his cake of control and the eating of it by remaining affluent. Once globalism is destroyed your Euroland is toast in the sense of affluence. You may be able to arrange a Byzantium behind economic and race walls but I doubt it. Euros can’t make decisions except to kill each other once the situation gets bad. You have proven this in the centuries before.

Lying is second nature to you. I am completely uninterested in colonizing the stinking dumb third world. Been there, done that. And you know it. All I want is completely halt all immigration to Europe and that’s it. And team up with Russia and if necessary even with China to resist the Anglo-Zionist globalist, One-World pestilence, that has already destroyed you and threatens to destroy us as well.
Btw, European colonialism was the best thing that ever happened to the darkies, it got them out of the stone age. Now they are stalking their former white masters, who supposedly, according the American “wisdom”, have been “oppressing” them, boohoo. Apparently it wasn’t so bad.
You want to halt migration because your native whites can’t breed enough and are being absorbed genetically into other races.
Yes. I look at the immense richness of the European heritage and nobody comes even near. And everybody knows it and wants to come to Europe (or America). If we don’t resist we end up with the “planet of the apes”, where people are no longer guaranteed to be able to read and write.
I am against the ZOG element in American culture and politics although I am realistic about it.
You are not resisting, the pussy that you are. ZOG is going to destroy you, actually it has already. After Trump they will return with a vengeance, and once they have reached their demographic goals and rammed you into minority status, their goal since 1965, you are toast. They are going to strip every aspect of white history from the face of America as being “oppressive”. Life is going to be a nightmare for whites, like it was in the USSR. You know it, the hypocrite that you are, you have already the escape route planned into European safety. The total failure of a human being that you are. First you let yourself being used by ZOG to destroy us, together with ZOG-USSR and next you will seek shelter with us. I hope the Italians will throw you of a cliff as a revenge for 1943.

Cloggie, China and Russia already endorse the IMF to head the One World financial system, beginning with its SDRs. You are deluding yourself if you believe otherwise. The OWG group is using the Central Banks to cause the crash. at least that is my take on what I see and read. 2020 could be the year it all falls apart. Certainly before 2025.
China is busy moving the One World Government forward with their new “Silk Road”, tying trade together into one big unit. They know they cannot control it, but a OWG can and will eventually.
Europe, like the US, will be only part of the new world government, not in control. But the West has to come down first. That will be a painful time for the many millions who think they are immune.
It’s a OWG or nukes. I’ll take the OWG thank you. After all, it is only more of what most of the world already has, including the US and the EU, government by the elite. There is no democracy in the world. Never was. Only the lie.

Cloggie, China and Russia already endorse the IMF to head the One World financial system, beginning with its SDRs. You are deluding yourself if you believe otherwise.
I never suggested that China is not willing to cooperate on the international stage. SDRs btw are a move away from the dollar and US hegemon(e)y, so why shouldn’t Beijing go along with that? They are focused on manufacturing and export, hence on international relations.
But suggesting that China will accept governance from the UN building in NY is ridiculous. And China is not strong enough to impose its will on the rest of the world or in the foreseeable future.

China’s vision is that of a multipolar world with multilateral cooperation. George Soros can have America, but not China. Or Russia. Or Europe (soon).

Brexit deal completed:

PM seals Brexit pact on future EU relations with vows that the UK WILL be able to strike trade deals around world and exit Irish border backstop – but Britain must accept rules on environment and workers
Non-nonsense summary: Britain remains part of the Common Market. Both parties want to maintain “ambitious and deep relationship”. Zero tariffs, total free trade. Britain is free to engage in new economic relationships with others (and Europe is more free to improve relations with Russia, that Britain no longer can block and keep Turkey out of the union, against the wish of the Anglos, who love to water down the EU).
On Sunday the deal will be signed formally.
But pushing it through in London is still a major challenge, but I think that eventually it will be adopted, and that “Tory rebels” won’t be able to stop it. Because of lack of an alternative.
Economically Britain becomes a vassal of Europe rather than a prominent member, but gains some political freedom, but it is unclear what the UK intends to do with it.
The only real alternative would have been a hard Brexit and for the UK to become an impoverished 100% US subsidiary and another one of America’s unsinkable aircraft-carriers, next to Japan, Taiwan, Philippines and South-Korea. Europe’s own Cuba so to speak. That scenario probably has been staved off.
Brexit doesn’t make any sense and is an expression of nostalgia for two centuries of Anglo dominance, a world that is now quickly disappearing. The British failed to become fully-fledged Europeans, despite a serious attempt that lasted half a century, but are sensible enough not to burn all the bridges behind them.
But again, this Brexit scenario may be likely but is not yet a done deal.

Dear reader,
Mothers around the world are going to have to eat their babies soon..You are doomed to a front row seat for the great Malthusian Nightmare (Trap)..
When the collapse hits in a few year, the men will rape the women brutally..There will be two or three men on one woman sometimes even — husbands and children were forced to watch ..the younger more attractive women will be raped multiple times and be passed around by the men..
Economic collapse > Global societal collapse > Anarchy 2030

Dear reader,
We have a sociopath among us who is searching for a pretext to do exactly this:
When the collapse hits in a few year, the men will rape the women brutally..There will be two or three men on one woman sometimes even — husbands and children were forced to watch ..the younger more attractive women will be raped multiple times and be passed around by the men..
Well, as long as he is on the forum, he is not roaming the streets.

Mob “Mothers around the world are going to have to eat their babies soon.”
No, they won’t. Humans have been eating babies since before we were humans, but most people will switch babies rather than eat their own. Nothing new there!

I’m having Soylent Green with turkey gravy this afternoon. Hope there’s some French mixed in, they’re so moist and chewy.
