Portugal’s Ambassador to China, Paulo Jorge Nascimento, stated that China’s Maritime Silk Road should reach Portugal through the port of Sines.
Portugal’s Ambassador added that Portugal is negotiating with China for the entry of new products and that Portuguese companies should use this opportunity to establish a presence in China by targeting specific cities or regions, instead of China as a whole. Portugal’s Ambassador to China explained Portugal’s new trade policy in an interview to TDM (Teledifusão de Macau SA).
China’s Maritime Silk Road will link the Chinese coast to trade partners through the Strait of Malacca via Sri Lanka, then to East Africa and from there through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean. In the Mediterranean, the maritime route will link Haifa in Israel, to Istanbul, Athens, and Trieste in Italy. With this new development, China’s Maritime Silk Road will extend to Portugal through the port of Sines.
