China's lifting nearly 800 million people out of poverty in 70 years is the most remarkable achievement in human history. In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the Belt and Road Initiative, which will revitalize the historic Silk Road and mark the twenty-first century. The Belt and Road Initiative is an initiative that will play a role in reducing poverty by creating new job opportunities through infrastructure work, economic aid and commercial revival. According to the World Bank's Sustainable Development 2030 report, China's Belt and Road Initiative predicts that countries will develop by achieving Global Sustainable Development.
