On September 23, Robert Dohner, nonresident senior fellow at the Asia Security Initiative and former deputy assistant secretary at the US Department of the Treasury, was quoted in an article titled “China’s Lack of Transparency is Creating ‘Antisynopathy’” by MENAFN for his comments on China’s Belt and Road Initiative, originally published in an Atlantic Council the article “Skepticism casts a shadow over China’s Belt and Road Summit” from last April. In his comments, Dohner argues that the success of BRI will depends on how China responds to the inevitable criticisms that it will face and in revising the BRI to be more transparent and consistent with global standards.
