Italy has informed China that it is pulling out of the Belt and Road Initiative, Reuters reported.

Italy is the only G7 country to have joined the programme, which focuses on trade and infrastructure.

Rome’s agreement with Beijing would have been renewed automatically in March 2024, unless Italy gave at least three months’ written warning.

yeah but is it real 'pulling out of the initiative' or is it victoria australias 'you will pull out of the initiative/haha fuck you prime minister youre not the boss of a state premier' version of pulling out of the initiative.

cos our federal government told the states to knock it the fuck off, only for the states to give the the fed the middle finger and just renamed it and pretended it wasnt chinese.

Well I hope that is real, to soon to say... but if it is, this is extremely good news - how I see things might go otherwise.

This is basically a detail and has already been known. The thing is, Europe used to be a key part of the BRI but as the EU has destroyed it's economic foundation it is no longer important. Europe is economically a back-water now.

Strange, she's a zionist pawn and Israel wants the belt and road.
