“亚非增长走廊”是日本和印度共同推动的一项战略构想。日本和印度希望通过“亚非增长走廊”确保海外能源安全,争夺在非洲的能源利益,为本国经济发展创造有利条件。同时,也不排除日印共同制衡中国提出的“一带一路”倡议的目的。印度人与印度企业在非洲民众中的认同感以及日非长期关系有助于日印在非洲开展长期经济合作。但日印两国持有的不同利益诉求与分歧、国内政策支持与资金约束等问题也将制约“亚非增长走廊”的发展。
“Asia Africa Growth Corridor”is a strategic conception driven by Japan and India. Japan and India aim to ensure overseas energy security,compete for energy interest in Africa and create favorable conditions for their own economic development. In the meanwhile,the possibility of existence for Japan and India's intention to contain“The Belt and Road”initiative proposed by China cannot be ruled out. The recognition by African people to Indian and Indian enterprises and long-term relationship between Japan and Africa contribute to their implementation of long-term economic cooperation in Africa. Nevertheless,the problems including different interests,domestic decision-making process and capital restriction will constraint the development of“Asia Africa Growth Corridor”as well.
