Wangyi put forward five suggestions: First, improve the four beams and eight pillars of cooperation among the six countries. The establishment of the "China + five Central Asian countries" summit mechanism is of great strategic significance. Careful preparations should be made to give full play to the leading role of heads of state diplomacy. Actively carry out exchanges and dialogues in various fields. China will hold local, think tanks, industry and investment, economic and trade cooperation and other forums to release the cooperation potential of "China + five Central Asian countries" in an all-round, three-dimensional and multi-dimensional manner. Second, build a strong engine for post epidemic recovery. Jointly build the "the Belt and Road" with high quality and accelerate the docking of development strategies. Actively promote the natural gas pipeline project, ensure the safe operation of the "China Europe train" and other major arteries, accelerate the China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan Railway project, and support the construction of trans Caspian transport corridor.
