The BELT & ROAD INITIATIVE was originally billed as being designed to provide new Land & Sea Connections from China to the Rest of the World. However this Initiative developed into helping EMERGING & DEVELOPING COUNTRIES to improve ROAD, RAIL, AIR & SEA Infrastructure and to Build POWER PLANTS. China has advanced $1.3 TRILLION in Loans to HIGH RISK Countries and the majority of those loan are now in DEFAULT. In this video I provide details of the investments made by China, the outstanding loans by SECTOR & COUNTRY and the amount of debt now in DEFAULT.
