China just launched the first train that will travel all the way to London. In approximative 18 days, the cargo will get to London.

The train will cover 7,456 miles and will pass through several countries: Russia, Kazakhstan, Poland, Germany, Belgium, France and then it will arrive in Eastern London.

The Xinhua agency news says that the train left on January 1. It contains products that worth approximative £4m. Amongst the items are socks, bags and clothes.

The China-Europe line already had seven countries and Britain became the eighth, while London is the 12^th European city.

The project was proposed by the Chinese president that wanted to connect Asia with Europe and Africa. The strategy is called “One Belt, One Road”. The routes follow the trails that were used to trade silk in the past.

This will improve the trading ties between China and Britain and will make China rise in the relations with the Western Europe.

The train has to have the containers reloaded at some points, as the railing track differs across the many countries.

The same day, one of the biggest TV network in the country, China Central Television, launched a global platform.

The Chinese president wants to change the way his country is seen across the globe and wants to establish it as a peace maker.

 This initiative is going to make the international relations much stronger and will definitely help China rebrand itself. It will also help the international trading for the country.
