African countries are important partners and active participants in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). Rahamtalla M. Osman, African Union Representative to China, said that BRI is a win-win cooperation between China and all participating members.
“I think we have to separate propaganda from reality. Sri Lanka did not fall into a trap.” Talking about critics of the Belt and Road Initiative accusing China of pursuing a policy of “debt-trap diplomacy”, Sri Lanka’s former Ambassador to China, Dr. Palitha Kohona, refuted the allegations.
