Here's link to recent article about the project written by Ai Weiwei, so the article has interesting point of view and not "official" propaganda.  It's already partially ready. In general huge $900B project. Anyway, have to raise hat for China building such things across continents. Weiwei sees it as a power grab, which is partially true, but it has also huge positive impact on local economies and connections. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/mar/19/ai-weiwei-new-silk-road-chinese-power-grab.
