Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation. This report is the product of an AI model that is significantly less biased than human analyses and has been explicitly instructed to strictly maintain 100% neutrality.

Nevertheless, HonestyMeter is in the experimental stage and is continuously improving through user feedback. If the report seems inaccurate, we encourage you to submit feedback , helping us enhance the accuracy and reliability of HonestyMeter and contributing to media transparency.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Biased language

The article uses biased language to favor India and criticize China.

India’s unreserved opposition to China’s One Belt One Road (OBOR) initiative launched across four continents over ten years ago by President Xi Jinping with great fanfare was given vent to from time to time by powers that be, including prime minister Narendra Modi.

Use neutral language to present the facts without favoring any side.

Cherry-picking data

The article selectively presents data to support India's position and criticize China's OBOR initiative.

China has already spent a trillion dollars to expand its influence in Asia, Africa and Latin America through its belt and road infrastructure programme. At the same time tens of billions dollars of loans have gone sour and many development projects have stalled. Most of the countries that received loans from China to give shape to infrastructure projects have defaulted in servicing debts.

Provide a more balanced view by including data on successful projects and countries that have benefited from China's infrastructure investments.

Omission of key information

The article omits key information about the benefits and successes of China's OBOR initiative.

The truth is China has already spent a trillion dollars to expand its influence in Asia, Africa and Latin America through its belt and road infrastructure programme. At the same time tens of billions dollars of loans have gone sour and many development projects have stalled.

Include information about successful projects and positive impacts of China's infrastructure investments to provide a more comprehensive view.

Unbalanced reporting

The article presents a biased view by focusing more on India's perspective and criticisms of China's OBOR initiative.

Include perspectives from both sides and present a more balanced view of the OBOR initiative.
