Original title: Under the test of the epidemic, the construction of the “Belt and Road” is deepened and carried out
2020 is not easy and extraordinary. Despite the severe impact of the new corona pneumonia epidemic, the “Belt and Road” construction still shows great resilience and has produced a brilliant report card.
Recently, byChinese architectureThe largest transportation infrastructure project undertaken in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor – Pakistan PKM Highway Project (Sukkur-Multan Section) was officially moved to vehicular traffic. The escalation of the “China-Pakistan Friendship Route” is the epitome of the current practical cooperation between China and the countries associated with the “Belt and Road”.
At the beginning of the epidemic, the outside world was generally concerned that “Belt and Road” cooperation would stall. However, construction projects along the “Belt and Road” have been progressing steadily, “turning crises into opportunities.”
For one thing, the original project advanced on time. For example, the civil engineering for the Menas hydroelectric plant in Ecuador, carried out by a Chinese company, was completed and delivered in June; The first large-scale urban rail transit project officially launched under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, the Lahore Rail Transit Orange Line Project in Pakistan, officially launched in October.
On the other hand, lots of new projects have been launched. In June, the Ivilak-Raikovac highway began in Serbia; In July, the Chadian National Information Industry Modernization Project, funded and implemented by the Chinese party, started; in August, the historic “Belt and Road” construction project: Ghana Coastal Avenue The opening ceremony of the project improvement and renovation project was held in Accra, the capital of Ghana …
At the same time, the China-Europe train, which is co-building a major “Belt and Road” project spanning the Eurasian continent, has achieved “acceleration” with its unique advantages and strength of ” hard core “.
As of November 5, the number of China-Europe freight trains this year has reached 10,180, which has exceeded the number of trains operated throughout the year. 927,000 TEU of goods were transported, an increase of 54% year-on-year, and the comprehensive round-trip heavy container rate reached 98.3%. The transport network continues to expand and has reached 92 cities in 21 European countries. To help the world fight the epidemic, nearly 8 million medical supplies were delivered, totaling more than 60,000 tons. Amid the raging epidemic and economic headwinds, the China-Europe express train has sparked the “lightning bolt” and has become the “channel of life” for interconnection between China and Europe in the fight against the epidemic, contributing with “Chinese power” to ensure the stability and smooth flow of the international supply chain.
The sudden outbreak of the epidemic failed to stop the deepening and completion of the “Belt and Road” construction, and cooperation in production capacity continued to advance.
The “World Investment Report 2020” predicts that global foreign direct investment flows will decline by approximately 40% in 2020, reaching the lowest level in almost 20 years, and will not recover until 2022. However, China’s investment cooperation with “Belt and Road” related countries has always been stable. In the first 10 months of this year, Chinese companies invested 98.34 billion yuan in non-financial direct investment in 57 countries along the “Belt and Road”, a year-on-year increase of 24.8%, representing the 16.3% of the total in the same period, an increase of 3.6 percentage points over the same period last year. In terms of overseas contracted projects, Chinese companies signed 3,838 new contracts for overseas contracted projects in 61 countries related to the “Belt and Road”, with a newly signed contract value of 644.72 billion yuan, which It represents 55.5% of the value of the newly signed contract of projects contracted abroad from China in the same period.
In terms of import and export trade, in the first three quarters of this year, China’s total commercial imports and exports with “Belt and Road” related countries reached US $ 963.42 billion. Although a 1% year-on-year decrease, the growth rate was 0.8 percentage points higher than the overall national level; Nonfinancial direct investment in related countries reached $ 13.02 billion, a year-on-year increase of 29.7%, 32.3 percentage points higher than the overall national growth rate.
The “Belt and Road Initiative” is moving towards a stage of roots and sustained development. At present, China has signed 202 “Belt and Road” joint construction cooperation documents with 138 countries and 31 international organizations, and has jointly carried out more than 2,000 projects. Promoting the transition from joint “Belt and Road” construction to high-quality development will open up more space for development and bring more tangible benefits to the development of all countries.
“The path of all benefits, it walks with time.” Faced with the complex and volatile international situation, the plan for high-quality joint construction of the “Belt and Road” is clearer, the path is clearer, and the measures are more powerful, which will continuously contribute to Chinese wisdom. , Chinese solutions and Chinese power to the world economy.
