This year marks the 10th anniversary of China’s Belt and Road Initiative — a platform for global cooperation, in which Beijing is actively creating and developing sea and land routes to Asia, Africa and Europe. The starting point of this grandiose project was the city of Xi’an, from which the ancient Silk Road originated.

Transport can provide Central Asia with access to international markets. The new vision on transport in the region implies creation of transit crossroads to form the transport framework of Europe.
