Lan Ping'er, a senior researcher at the East Asia Research Institute of the National University of Singapore, believes that although the Belt and Road Initiative proposed in China has benefited from the lack of funds and barren technology, it is still excluded by the United States, India and Japan.The problem of itself is that in the current Cold War international system led by the United States, these countries are disturbed by the rise and strong rise of China.

Lan Ping'er explained at a seminar on the development of the Belt and Road Initiative on the 2nd of this month. Before the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative, the United States, Japan, and India had similar plans before the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative, and it had already been on China.Be wary and doubt.

For example, he said that as early as the 19th century, he pursued the foreign policy of Monroe Doctrine, and later launched the Marshall Plan after World War II and established the North Atlantic Convention in Europe.

After being defeated by China in the border war in 1962, India had suspicion against China, and the border dispute was still unreasonable.In addition, India also has concerns about the relationship between China and Pakistan.

As early as 1977, Japan proposed FUKUDA Doctrine, promising to make Japan a peaceful country and cooperate with Asianian and its member states as an equal partner.

Japan has also set foot in Africa very early, and has held an international conference with Africa development with African development since 1991.In addition, Japan's infrastructure investment and aid in Southeast Asian countries are far more than China.

Lan Ping'er said: If China is not in the rise, the ideas or strategies proposed by the Belt and Road Initiative or other China will be ignored.

Therefore, he believes that regional countries have rejected the Belt and Road Initiative, and this reality also highlights the conflict between values of the three major democratic countries of the United States and India and the rise of a Chinese Communist Party.

U.S. India Japan may coexist with China peacefully

Looking forward to the future, Lan Ping'er is optimistic and judged that because the United States and India adopt a pragmatic and flexible foreign policy, they may compete and coexist with Chinese peaceful competition.Because the only alternative will be a war on each other, but the price is too high.

He said that if China, Japan, or the United States can provide substantial infrastructure for small countries seeking development, then a bit of competition between these large powers may not be a bad thing.
