It enjoys such wide support and participation in the world because it advocates a development model of peaceful sharing, mutual benefit, and win-win cooperation. Cooperation and joint construction can bring more opportunities and be conducive to common development.
As one of the six major economic corridors planned by the “One Belt, One Road” initiative, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is a pilot model among them and has set a benchmark for the construction of other major economic corridors. Awan believes that this is because the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor has inherent advantages – the long-term friendship between the two countries. The man nodded slightly, took another breath, and then explained the causes and consequences. Well, we have a profound foundation of traditional friendship. The relations between the two countries have developed steadily over the past 70 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations. Over the past 10 years, the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor has been progressing smoothly and achieved fruitful results. Both China and Pakistan agreed to introduce the construction of the corridor into the second phase to further deepen and expand cooperation between the two countries.

In addition, the corridor can also serve as a bridge to provide convenience for many landlocked countries in the region. Through the corridor, they can enter the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean through Gwadar Port, providing convenient maritime transportation for these countries to trade with the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. In short, the successful implementation of the corridor project has promoted regional connectivity, promoted regional peace and stability, and strengthened the connection between China and Pakistan and the countries along the corridor. “This is why the ‘Belt and Road’ initiative is a mutually beneficial cooperation, sharing and win-win option. “.

This is a “family gathering” of the “Belt and Road Initiative” and a grand event that carries forward the past and opens up the future. In today’s international situation, it has both important symbolic and practical significance.

Lan Yuhua choked and returned to the room, preparing to wake up her husband. She would go to serve tea to her mother-in-law in a while. How did she know? When I got to the room, I found that my husband had already gotten up and was not attending the International Cooperation Summit Forum at all, which shows that Pakistan attaches great importance to the friendly cooperative relations with China,” Awan said, believing that the construction of the second phase of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor will continue.By expanding areas of cooperation and moving forward with higher quality and faster speed, Brazil-China relations will continue their past glory and move towards an even brighter future.
