中国新丝绸之路计划在非洲成形

Four years and some hundreds of billions of dollars later, China’s ambitious global trading strategy known as the “Maritime Silk Road” or “One Belt, One Road“ is now coming to life, particularly in parts of East Africa where major infrastructure and defense projects are being built.

四年以来数百亿美元过后，中国雄心勃勃的全球贸易战略，“海上丝绸之路”或者称作“一带一路，现在正在变成现实，特别是在东非的部分地区，主要的基础设施建设和国防安全项目正在建设中。

New ports in Tanzania, rail lines in Kenya, naval facilities in Djibouti and industrial zones along the Suez Canal in Egypt are all intended to support this massive new trade network that President Xi Jinping hopes will become a key pillar of his foreign Policy agenda.

坦桑尼亚的新港口，肯尼亚的铁路线，吉布提的海军设施和沿埃及苏伊士运河的工业区都被用来支撑这个庞大的新贸易网络，习近平主席希望这个贸易网络能够成为他的对外政策议程的关键支柱。
