(ECNS) -- Thanks to the Belt and Road cooperation, cooperation in infrastructure, connectivity and other fields have been given wide attention around the world, injecting strong impetus to keeping international industrial and supply chains stable and boosting the inclusive and sustainable growth of global economy, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said Thursday.
Wang made the remarks following a question at a regular press conference.
During the press conference, The Paper, a Chinese media reported that The U.S. magazine Foreign Policy published an article a few days ago, pointing out that the Red Sea crisis proves that China’s Belt and Road Initiative is very important as it is a blueprint for what every nation needs in an age of uncertainty and disruption.
Wang said he noted the article and another article published by the US magazine The Diplomat, which considered the possibility of complementarity between the Belt and Road Initiative and infrastructure aid programs of Western countries, rather than being outright competitors.
"What these two articles pointed out are simply objective facts that anyone without tinted glasses can see at a glance," Wang said.
The vision of high-quality Belt and Road cooperation supported by the spirit of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, open, green and clean cooperation, and a high-standard, people-centered and sustainable approach has been incorporated into important documents of the UN and multilateral regional mechanisms, which demonstrates the common aspiration and strong consensus for Belt and Road cooperation in the international community, Wang said.
He pointed out that as the world enters a new period of turbulence and transformation, more and more people realized why the BRI is needed in today’s world.
"BRI advocates the approach of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, instead of supremacy. BRI advances connectivity, instead of decoupling and division. BRI pursues win-win cooperation, instead of antagonism and confrontation," he said.
China stands ready to work with all countries to deepen international Belt and Road cooperation, build more “belts of development” and “roads to happiness” to deliver benefit for all countries and contribute more to realizing global modernization featuring peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and prosperity for all.
