The most conclusive evidence of Xi’s readiness to challenge the established order lies in the economic sphere. Most notably, China has established new development institutions, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the new Silk Road Fund, to which it will channel tens of billions of dollars – clear challenges to the established Western-dominated multilateral institutions.
习近平准备挑战既成秩序，最有说服力的证据在于经济。最引人注目的是，中国建立了不少新发展机构，包括亚洲基础设施投资银行和新丝绸之路基金，将向其中注入数百亿美金——显然这是向西方主导的多边机构的挑战。
