Press conference on the 20th CPC National Congress

China.org.cn | October 17, 2022

Uzbek newspaper Narodnoe Slovo:

The national congress of the CPC will be held soon. At the congress, the main tasks of China for the next five years will be outlined. How will the Belt and Road Initiative develop in the next five years? What will be planned by China?

Sun Yeli:

The Silk Road was opened by our ancestors through great efforts for the purposes of trade and cultural interactions. History inspires the present. Proposed by General Secretary Xi Jinping, the BRI has been warmly received and participated in by the international community. Over the past nine years, China has signed BRI cooperation documents with over 140 countries and more than 30 international organizations. Related ideas and proposals for cooperation have been written into important documents of the U.N. and multiple international organizations. The BRI has become a popular international public good and an important platform for building a community with a shared future for mankind.

The BRI follows the principles of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, advancing policy, infrastructure, trade, financial and people-to-people connectivity with partner countries. We have explored new paths for joint development, realized win-win cooperation and contributed a new driving force for global economic growth. By this June, China's trade in goods with BRI partner countries totaled around $12 trillion. A large number of practical cooperation projects have been implemented, contributing to local economic development and improvement of people's livelihoods. More than 100 countries have participated in the first and second Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, reaching extensive consensus on jointly building the BRI and global partnerships on connectivity. Together we have drawn the blueprint of cooperation for high-quality development of the BRI and for common prosperity of all countries. 

Standing at the new starting point, we will continue to follow the principles of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, champion the philosophy of open, green and clean cooperation, and aim to achieve high-standard, sustainable and people-centered development. We will strive for higher standard cooperation, better deliverables from inputs, higher-quality supply and stronger resilience for development. As such, we will continue to advance the high-quality development of BRI cooperation. Thank you.

Liu Siyang:
