With the BRI resurrecting the ancient Silk Road, the Eurasian trading artery for silk, tea, porcelain and precious metals more than 2,000 years ago, trains have replaced camel caravans, paved expressways have taken the place of desert and mountain trails, and project cooperation and exchange of development modes and strategies have enriched the renewed trade along the route.
A BELARUSIAN DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
Almost every morning, Kirill Koroteev, first deputy director general of the China-Belarus Industrial Park Development Company, drives from his home in Minsk, capital of Belarus, to the China-Belarus Industrial Park in the eastern suburbs, picking up two colleagues on the way.
In May 2017, China and Belarus decided to build the industrial park as a key project on the Silk Road Economic Belt, the overland component of the BRI, and make it a model of their mutually beneficial cooperation.
The Belarusian government has declared the park a pivotal project to promote the development of Belarus's related industries, Koroteev said.
The first phase of infrastructure construction of the 8.5-square-km park has been largely completed and 37 companies from China, Russia, Germany, Austria, the United States and Israel as well as Belarus, have started operating from there.
Koroteev, former director of the investment bureau of Belarus's Economy Ministry, was involved in drafting the state documents supporting the BRI. "Belarus is one of the first countries to support the BRI and I am proud of it," he said.
