Abstract:	By March 2022, a remarkable 144 countries had signed onto the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)--China's massive investment and infrastructure development program--with significant implications for US foreign policy. Edward Ashbee explores how the US has reacted to this global expansion of Chinese power, tracing the arc of policy responses to the BRI from its inception in 2013 through early 2022.
