Xi'an, formerly known as Chang'an, is one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation, and also the eastern starting point of the ancient Silk Road. More than 2100 years ago, Chinese Han Dynasty envoy Zhang Qian set out from Chang'an to the Western Regions, opening the door to friendly exchanges between China and Central Asia. For thousands of years, China, along with the people of all ethnic groups in Central Asia, has promoted the rise and prosperity of the Silk Road, making historic contributions to the exchange, integration, and enrichment of world civilizations. Chinese Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai once wrote a poem that goes, "Let's work together again in Chang'an, and consider the importance of thousands of gold. Today we gather in Xi'an to continue our millennium old friendship and open up a new future, which is of great significance. For the past 10 years, China and Central Asian countries have worked together to promote the comprehensive revitalization of the Silk Road, and have made every effort to create deep cooperation for the future, bringing the bilateral relationship into a new era. The Zhongjiwu Highway spanning the Tianshan Mountains, the Zhongta Highway conquering the Pamir Plateau, the China Kazakhstan crude oil pipeline crossing the vast desert, and the China Central Asia natural gas pipeline are the contemporary "Silk Road"; The China Europe trains that travel day and night, the freight cars that travel continuously, and the non-stop air flights are the contemporary "camel caravans"; Entrepreneurs looking for business opportunities, medical staff fighting against the COVID-19, cultural workers delivering the voice of friendship, and overseas students seeking from top to bottom are contemporary ambassadors of friendship. The relationship between China and Central Asian countries has a profound historical origin, extensive practical needs, and a solid foundation of public opinion, which has shown great vitality and vitality in the new era.  Dear Colleagues, Currently, the century long changes are accelerating their evolution, and the world, times, and history are unfolding in unprecedented ways.
