Colombia joins China's Belt and Road
Cape Argus
|May 08, 2025
COLOMBIA'S president this week said he intends to sign an accord to join Beijing's Belt and Road Initiative during an upcoming China trip, a move sure to damage already frayed relations with Washington.
-
Leftist leader Gustavo Petro said he would sign a “letter of intent” to join the pact when he meets his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping face-to-face in the coming days.
The Belt and Road Initiative is a central pillar of Xi’s bid to expand his country’s economic and political clout overseas.
For more than a decade it has provided investment for infrastructure and other large-scale projects around the world, offering Beijing political and economic leverage in return.
