Mao Ning, spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said on the 27th that over the past 10 years, the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" has become the most popular international public goods and the largest platform for international cooperation. China looks forward to working with all parties to promote the high-quality development of the "the Belt and Road" and inject new strong impetus into the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind. In the past 10 years, the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" has made historic achievements, becoming the most popular international public goods and the largest international cooperation platform. She said that this year, the "the Belt and Road" economic, trade and investment cooperation has made steady progress. From January to November, China's imports and exports to countries jointly building the "the Belt and Road" totaled 17.65 trillion yuan, up 2.6% year on year; Non financial direct investment was RMB 2011 billion, a year-on-year increase of 26.8%; The contracted project completed a turnover of 784.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 8.5%. Good news of interconnectivity and cooperation is spreading frequently. The China Europe freight train has operated a total of 16145 trains and sent 1.749 million TEUs of goods in the first 11 months of this year, with year-on-year growth of 7% and 19% respectively. The freight volume has exceeded the total volume of last year. The Yawan high-speed railway has been in operation for two months, sending over one million passengers. The completion of projects such as Bangladesh's Father Tunnel and Nigeria's Leki Deepwater Port has effectively promoted the interconnection of relevant countries and regions. Livelihood cooperation has yielded fruitful results. The headquarters project of the African Center for Disease Control and Prevention, which was assisted by the Chinese side, was completed at the beginning of the year. The "small and beautiful" livelihood projects such as Luban Workshop, "Guangming Xing", mushroom grass technology, hybrid rice, artemisinin, etc. continue to benefit developing countries and have a wide range of positive effects. Cooperation in new fields such as green and digital is flourishing. China and many countries jointly released the "the Belt and Road" Green Development Beijing Initiative and the "the Belt and Road" Digital Economy International Cooperation Beijing Initiative to strengthen cooperation in green energy industries such as hydropower, wind power and photovoltaic, and promote the "Silk Road E-commerce" and other new carriers of digital economy to empower traditional industries. "We look forward to taking the 10th anniversary of the 'the Belt and Road' as a new starting point, working with all parties to promote the high-quality development of the 'the Belt and Road', and injecting new strong impetus into the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind," said Mao Ning.
