China’s Belt and Road at Five. The Challenge of the Sino-US Trade War

Five years after China launched the "Belt and Road Initiative", many countries have joined as partners or members of its main financing institution, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. Many projects are being developed around the world to improve mutual connectivity. However, China is increasingly under pressure, most notably through the tariffs imposed by Donald Trump, who criticises Beijing’s expansionist practices and ambition to become a global technology leader. Which impact is the trade war with the US having on China? What are the prospects for the Belt and Road Initiative, and what do the BRI’s foreign stakeholders risk in a trade war? Is anything likely to change between Washington and Beijing?
