In November of 2014 Chinese President Xi Jinping launched an exceptional new project, The New Silk Road Initiative.  Described as "One Belt, One Road" the initiative is expected to not only boost the economy of China but also to help link the countries along the former “Silk Road” by developing infrastructure and improving connectivity with Central Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
