Bruce Cockburn: 50 years of music, spirituality and social justice | SaltWireBEIJING - Chinese President Xi Jinping told Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban that he was a"friend" to China, and that both nations should elevate relations, in a sign of ever-closer ties even as European states look towards"de-risking" from China.
In one of the most prominent projects under Xi's Belt and Road Initiative, China offered most of the financing needed to build a railway link between Budapest and Belgrade, a huge undertaking that has been criticised for its cost and lack of transparency. Orban was visiting Beijing to attend a key forum on the Belt and Road Initiative, an ambitious plan launched by Xi a decade ago in the hopes of building global infrastructure and energy networks connecting Asia with Africa and Europe.
Many Western governments said the law breaks a promise to maintain a high degree of autonomy for Hong Kong since its 1997 return to Chinese rule.
