On November 11, the National Development and Reform Commission held the Endeavour “15th Five-Year Plan” series of press conferences to introduce the situation related to the joint construction of the “Belt and Road”. Liang Linchong, director of the Regional Opening-up Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that since 2013, thanks to the joint efforts of all parties, practical cooperation to jointly build the “Belt and Road” has broadened and broadened, and the win-win cake has grown bigger and bigger, not only developing China but also benefiting the world. This report card is mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, policy communication is more extensive and in-depth. We continue to strengthen our development strategy interface. We have signed “Belt and Road” cooperation documents with more than 150 countries and more than 30 international organizations. Our partners cover three-quarters of the world's countries and major international organizations. The 3rd “Belt and Road” International Cooperation Summit Forum was successfully held, resulting in nearly a thousand practical cooperation results. Dialogue and cooperation mechanisms have been jointly established with partners in more than 30 fields of expertise, such as taxation, energy, and disaster mitigation, to form multi-level and multi-field communication channels; second, facilities are more accessible and seamless. We continue to build an integrated connectivity network with our co-built countries. The China-Europe train has opened up a new land transportation channel between Asia and Europe. More than 140,000 trains have been operated, the value of goods sent exceeds 560 billion yuan, reaching 237 cities in 26 European countries. Trains across the Caspian Sea International Transport Corridor have achieved “daily operation”, and the overall operation of the North, China, and South Corridors have remained safe, stable and smooth. The “Silk Road Shipping” network continues to expand, and China's international container liner routes reach more than 100 countries and regions around the world. The joint construction of an inter-country air route network has accelerated expansion, and the Air Silk Road has reached 66 cities in the jointly built countries; third, smooth trade is more mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial. Since 2024, the volume of goods trade between China and the co-built countries has stabilized at more than 50% of the total value of foreign trade, which has become a strong support for the smooth flow of domestic and international dual cycles. In the first three quarters of this year, China's import growth rate from the co-built countries reached 17.9%, which is 1.3 percentage points higher than the export growth rate. The trend of two-way interaction, mutual benefit and win-win situation is even more obvious.
