Which of the following statement is correct about the "One Belt One Road" initiative ?

  • A."Belt" refers to the Himalayan belt and "road" refers to the land routes. The initiative aims at improving connectivity among Asia, Africa and Antarctica.
  • B."Belt" refers to maritime roads and "road" refers to air and land routes. The initiative aims at improving connectivity among China, Pakistan, India and other Asian countries.
  • C."Belt" refers to the overland routes and "road" refers to the sea routes. The initiative aims at improving connectivity among Asia, Africa and Europe.
  • D."Belt" refers to the Arabian Belt and "road" refers to land routes. The initiative aims at improving connectivity among Asia, Africa, Australia, Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea.

Answer: C

The correct statement is that "Belt" refers to the overland routes and "road" refers to the sea routes, connecting Asia, Africa and Europe.

China's One Belt One Road (Belt and Road Initiative), announced in 2013, has two parts: the Silk Road Economic Belt of overland corridors through Central Asia to Europe, and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road of sea routes through South-East Asia, South Asia and Africa to Europe.

The other options misdescribe the belt and road and name regions, such as Antarctica or Australia, that are not its focus. India has not joined the initiative.
