China is celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) which has extended Chinese economic and geopolitical influence across the globe. In his opening speech, Xi promised to extend access to China’s market for international firms and for new financing exceeding $100 billion for other developing economies.

He added that two Chinese-backed development banks – the China Development Bank and the Export–Import Bank of China – will each set 350 billion yuan ($47.9 billion) financing windows, while an additional 80 billion yuan ($11 billion) will be injected into the Silk Road Fund to support BRI projects.

“Viewing other’s development as a threat, or taking economic interdependence as a risk will not make one’s own life better or speed up one’s own development,” Xi said.

“We have learned that the silk road spirit of peace and cooperation, mutual learning and mutual benefit, openness and win-win is the most important source of strength for the Belt and Road cooperation.”
