The Chinese dragon has once again raised alarm bells in India’s neighbourhood. China has again pressured Nepal to join President Xi Jinping’s Global Security Initiative (GSI) and Global Civilization Initiative (GCI). China claims that the Chinese government has taken the GCI initiative to enrich the values of civilization and humanity.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has launched Belt and Road, Global Development Initiative, GSI and GCI in the last decade. Jinping has appealed to the global community to join in. At the same time, experts have raised serious questions about all these.
Experts say America has formed the ‘Quad’ Asian NATO to surround China. It also includes India, Japan and Australia. Now the President of China, worried about the quad, has started the Global Security Initiative called China’s NATO. China wants Nepal to join it as well. Nepal has not yet responded to this.
A BRI agreement was signed between Nepal and China in 2017, which has now become a massive web of debt worldwide. Many countries like Pakistan have reached the brink of default by getting stuck in BRI loans.
Nepal Scolded China On GSI
According to the report of the Kathmandu Post, Nepal may have signed the BRI, but till now, it has neither discussed nor implemented a single project showing understanding. However, Nepal has committed to seeking support through GDI.
Also, under this, China has already started two projects in Nepal. Zhao Leji, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, the Parliament of China, thanked Nepal for supporting the GDI in Beijing.
Zhao Leji claimed that joining the GSI and GCI would bring peace, stability and prosperity to the region and the world. He made this statement after meeting the Speaker of the Nepali Parliament, Ganesh Prasad. Ganesh is currently on a tour of China.
China has repeatedly asked Nepal to join the GSI, but Kathmandu is avoiding it. Nepal has clearly stated that its foreign policy prohibits it from entering any security or military alliance. Nepal believes that the GSI is a military alliance. A Nepali diplomat said that we had told our side to China earlier.
