China on Monday published a report elaborating on the progress, contributions and prospects1 of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).
本周一，中国发布一份报告，阐述了一带一路倡议的进展、贡献以及前景。
The document, prepared by the office of the leading group for promoting the BRI, was released ahead of the second Belt and Road
Forum2 for International Cooperation to be held from April 25 to 27 in Beijing.
The Belt and Road Initiative is an initiative for peaceful development and economic cooperation, rather than a geopolitical or military alliance, said the report. "It is a process of open, inclusive and common development, not an
exclusionary3 bloc4 or a 'China club'."
"It neither
differentiates5 between countries by
ideology6 nor plays the zero-sum game. Countries are welcome to join the initiative if they so will," according to the report.
The BRI has turned ideas into actions and vision into reality, and itself into a public product widely welcomed by the international community, the report said.
Since 2013, the BRI, with policy
coordination7, connectivity of
infrastructure8, unimpeded trade, financial
integration9 and closer people-to-people ties as its main goals, has advanced in solid steps, the report said.
"Significant progress has been made, including a number of
landmark10 early results. Participating countries have obtained
tangible11 benefits, and their
appreciation12 of and
participation13 in the initiative is growing," according to the report.
