🗣️Today we're launching a campaign to raise $250,000 to keep Global Voices alive and thriving. 👉🏿We’re ad-free, paywall-free, and community-powered, but funding cuts and a tough media landscape are putting us at risk. #KeepGVStrong 🌱

advox.globalvoices.org

BRI 2.0 in Uzbekistan: Funded by Europe, driven by China-Saudi cooperation. This framing of the wind farm as a BRI project sits uneasily alongside the narrative of competition with China pushed by Brussels.
globalvoices.org
