EASTIndia-Middle East-Europe economic corridor to counter China?
The article revealed that India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) may counter China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). In terms of objectives, both the mega transnational projects are similar, although China's BRI is larger in terms of scale. At the G7 leaders meeting in May in Japan, the world's seven richest countries pledged to collectively mobilize $600 billion (€558 billion) by 2027 to counter the BRI. The total proposed budget remains unannounced, which will be decided in about two months.
The project, if completed, could act as a foil to China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a massive infrastructure project that has fueled concerns over Beijing's extensive footprint across at least three continents. Some IMEC signatories are also part of BRI, including Italy, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

The India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) was announced on the sidelines of the recently concluded G20 leaders' summit in New Delhi. The project, if completed, could act as a foil to China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a massive infrastructure project that has fueled concerns over Beijing's extensive footprint across at least three continents.
European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen said during her annual State of the European Union speech on Wednesday that the corridor will "be the most direct connection to date between India, the Arabian Gulf and Europe: With a rail link, that will make trade between India and Europe 40% faster."
The White House said in a statement that "across the corridor, we envision driving existing trade and manufacturing, and strengthening food security and supply chains. Our approach aims to unlock new investments from partners, including the private sector, and spur the creation of quality jobs."
