After President Xi Jinping put forward One Belt One Road Initiative in 2013, there is much media coverage on this issue. This paper, based on the LexisNexis data of The New York Times, The Times of India and The Strait Times during September 2013 to June 2016, within the theoretical framework of semantic prosody and appraisal theory, explores the discursive construction of Belt and Road in the different ideological contexts. Findings demonstrate that the three newspapers represent the same social reality out of different stances and interests. They apply different terms to refer to Yidai Yilu. The Times of India explicitly demonstrates Indian government’s cold attitude, while The New York Times implicitly reveals its negative attitude. Through lexis of positive reaction and valuation, The Straits Times portrays overwhelming support for One Belt One Road Initiative.
