Xi Jinping, president of the People’s Republic of China, wants to restore his country’s greatness and shape its future by reviving ancient trade routes between China and the West. As one of the world’s most powerful and visionary leaders, President Xi plans to loan trillions of dollars for 900 development projects in more than 60 countries to facilitate global trade with China. The New Silk Road Initiative will fund the construction of ports, pipelines, power stations, railways, and highways to transport goods across Asia, moving them between Africa, the Middle East, Europe and China.
