The Security Challenges of Belt and Road Corridors

Year 2019, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 91 - 105, 19.03.2019

Abstract

This paper tries to identify security problems
exist on the Belt and Road Initiative corridors. Although it is one of the most
ambitious economic projects in the 21st century, Belt and Road
Initiative is afflicted by separatist and terrorist activities. The paper
selected three cases: Xinjiang, Balochistan, and Myanmar. In Xinjiang,
oppressed Uyghur people sporadically rise against Chinese rule, afflicting the
security of the New Eurasian Land Bridge and China-Central Asia-West Asia
corridors. Balochistan province, which has witnessed several rebellions since
Pakistan’s independence threaten China’s 46 billion investment in
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslims are unwanted hosts
of the territories which Belt and Road corridors pass through. In response to
these threats, China implements a set of security measures including
strengthening its presence in Xinjiang and abandoning its traditional non-interference
policy in its interactions with relevant countries to provide stability Belt
and Road corridors. In Xinjiang, it establishes a security state; in
Balochistan it propels Pakistan to increase the number of troops; for Rohingya
Muslims in Myanmar China backs Myanmar army’s atrocities in the global arena.

Kuşak ve Yol Projesi Koridorlarının Karşılaştığı Güvenlik Tehditleri

Year 2019, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 91 - 105, 19.03.2019
https://doi.org/10.30784/epfad.518954

Abstract

Bu çalışma Kuşak ve Yol Projesinin
koridorlarında mevcut olan güvenlik tehditlerini teşhis etmek amacındadır. 21.
Yüzyılın en iddialı projelerinden biri olmasına karşın, Kuşak ve Yol Projesi
ayrılıkçı ve terörist aktiviteler tarafından tehdit edilmektedir. Bu çalışma
Kuşak ve Yol Projesinin üç vakayı ele almaktadır. Şincan, Belucistan, ve
Myanmar. Şincan bölgesinde Uygur azınlık Çin otoritesine karşı çıkarak Yeni
Avrasya Kara Köprüsü ve Çin-Orta Asya-Batı Asya koridorlarının işleyişini
tehlikeye düşürmektedir. Pakistan’ın bağımsızlığından sonra birçok isyanın
yaşandığı Belucistan, Çin’in Çin-Pakistan Ekonomik Koridoru kapsamında yaptığı
46 milyar dolarlık yatırımlarını tehdit etmektedir. Myanmar’ın istenmeyen
Rohingya Müslümanları Kuşak ve Yol Projesinin geçtiği bölgelerde yaşamaktadır.
Bu tehditlere karşılık olarak, Çin, Kuşak ve Yol Koridorlarının istikrarını
korumak için, Şincan’da güvenlik güçlerinin varlığını artırmış, dış
politikasında da geleneksel olan ülkelerin iç işlerine karışma politikasını bir
kenara bırakarak güvenlik araçlarını devreye sokmaya başlamıştır. Şincan’da Çin
bir polis devleti kurmuştur; Belucistan’da Pakistan’nın güvenlik güçlerinin
sayılarını artırmasını istemiş; Myanmar’daki Rohingya Müslümanları için
Myanmar’ın ordusunun katliamlarını uluslararası alanda savunmaya devam
etmiştir.
