Jointly building the "the Belt and Road" initiative is one of the most important public goods in the world in the past 10 years, which has had an important impact on the development of the co built countries and even the world economic pattern. China's proposal for this cooperation initiative is based on reflection on the prospects of human civilization development. The world today is in a critical period of transition and change. Jointly building the "the Belt and Road" meets the needs of all parties and will continue to make contributions to promoting human development and progress.
Jointly building the "the Belt and Road" initiative is a cooperative initiative that helps promote smooth trade and economic development. The ancient Silk Road is one of the greatest trade routes in human history. Jointly building the "the Belt and Road" initiative inherits the spirit of the Silk Road, adheres to pacifism, and outlines a new vision for economic cooperation and multilateral trade development. The achievements of the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" cooperation benefit all parties. Increasing investment in infrastructure, transportation, trade and investment will help facilitate the flow of people, goods, and capital between countries. Under the framework of jointly building the "the Belt and Road", China and relevant countries strengthen the docking of development strategies and expand the consensus on opening up and cooperation, which is conducive to building a closer community of common destiny.
In today's world, trade protectionism is on the rise, Cold War thinking is making a comeback, and the phenomenon of beggar thy neighbor is not uncommon. In China's view, all humanity rides on the same big ship, and all people and countries are partners moving forward together. In the face of global challenges, all countries should share the responsibility, and no country can solve all problems alone. China firmly stands on the side of peace and development, and on the side of openness and cooperation. The spirit of solidarity and cooperation demonstrated by the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" is a model of the combination of the essence of Chinese traditional culture and the reality of the current era, which will gather more strength for countries to work together to build a better future. Adhering to the principle of joint consultation, joint construction and sharing, the "the Belt and Road" initiative promotes political mutual trust, deepens economic and trade cooperation, expands people to people and cultural exchanges, and jointly shares development opportunities, which is also an important reason why the initiative is popular worldwide.
The joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" has brought tangible benefits to Bulgaria. Bulgarian specialty products such as yogurt, wine, and rose products are increasingly favored by Chinese consumers. In recent years, the economic and trade ties between China and Bulgaria have become closer, and cultural exchanges have become increasingly close. The Luban Workshop of Bulgarian Provdiv Agricultural University cultivates vocational and technical talents for Bulgaria, and has become a model of education cooperation between Bulgaria and China.
I have been paying attention to China since the 1980s, and its rapid development, progress, and increasing international influence have profoundly changed the world. Because I agree with the development concept of the "the Belt and Road" initiative, and because I have witnessed the results of inclusive development brought about by the "the Belt and Road" initiative, I launched the Bulgarian "the Belt and Road" National Federation in 2017. The original intention of this association is to help more Bulgarians understand and support the "the Belt and Road" initiative. In the past few years, despite the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, the Federation has attracted more experts from Bulgaria's economic, cultural, academic and other fields to actively support and participate.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the initiative of jointly building the "the Belt and Road". This initiative has grown from scratch, from concept to practice, and the number of participating partners has continued to increase, truly reflecting China's increasing contribution to international cooperation. We look forward to greater success for China, and to the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" cooperation to inject more impetus into the development of the joint construction country.
