China Hits Back at US for Criticizing Corridor Project With Pakistan

Ayaz Gul

   ISLAMABAD - China and Pakistan urged the United States on Friday "to
   sift fact from fiction" before questioning their bilateral
   infrastructure development program, which Beijing is funding under its
   global Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

   The reaction camea day after a senior American diplomat spoke
   critically of the multibillion-dollar collaboration, known as the
   China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), and warned it would eventually
   worsen Islamabad's economic troubles and benefit only Beijing.
