Glasgow [Scotland], May 18 (ANI): The constitution of Pakistan bars non-Muslims from becoming the head of the state.

Irrespective of the economic outcomes, the Belt and Road Initiative has created a new core–periphery relationship in China’s favour. In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping unveiled his Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), invoking the ancient Silk Road as he announced China’s latest plan for its continued economic development. Reviving the trade routes and cultural exchanges that linked the major civilisations of Asia, Europe and Africa, the World Bank suggests the BRI could improve connectivity and cooperation on a transcontinental scale across more than 70 countries.
