Way Forward – China-Pakistan Economic Corridor
India must do a thorough analysis of the potential advantages and drawbacks of the OBOR initiative before pushing for CPEC in the future. India and Japan’s economic collaboration has led to the creation of the Asia-Africa Growth Corridor. It might provide India with significant strategic advantages and put China’s OBOR agenda to the test. Prioritization should be given to Indian strategic projects such as the Chabahar Port and the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM).
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC)
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a 3,000-kilometer-long network of infrastructure projects that links China’s Xinjiang region to Pakistan’s Gwadar Port in Balochistan. The main goal of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is to make a secure and shorter path for China to get energy from the Middle East.
Instead of using the current route through the Straits of Malacca, which could be blocked during a war, this new corridor provides an alternative way for China to meet its energy needs and support its economy.
In this article, we will look into the background of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), its history, developments, challenges, and impact in detail. We will also discuss the projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and the CPEC Map.
