Stephen, Chairman of the British Forty-Eight Group Club·Mr. Stephen Perry
Mr. Perry explained from a historical perspectiveThe changes in the relationship between China and the world behind the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. He reviewed China's three historic great leaps. The first was after the founding of the People's Republic of China, when China gained political independence and gradually laid the foundation for modern industrial development in the economic field. The second time was after China implemented the reform and opening up policy. China began a rapid modernization process, accelerated urbanization, and achieved considerable development in manufacturing and foreign w88. The third time was the “One Belt, One Road” initiative proposed in 2013. Perry pointed out that the “Belt and Road Initiative” has brought incredible changes to the world in the past eight years. A large amount of investment has entered Europe, Africa, South America, etc. from China. Based on its own development experience, China hopes to achieve the goal of common development by helping countries along the Belt and Road to build infrastructure. Mr. Perry calls the Belt and Road Initiative the "new silk road", which connects the vast continent from the Pacific to the Atlantic and from Africa to South America through w88, transportation, energy, telecommunications and other means, aiming to build a transnational infrastructure network. The Belt and Road Initiative helps developing countries apply high technologies such as artificial intelligence to their infrastructure construction, such as ports, railways and roads. Perry believes that through the "One Belt, One Road" initiative, China has connected the vast number of developing and developed countries more and more closely together through infrastructure interconnection. This undertaking is unprecedented. Only China is willing to do this and can do it. Facing young scholars from the University of International w88, he believed that the “Belt and Road Initiative” is a big stage for China to participate in global governance. He believed that the careers of many young people here will revolve around the “Belt and Road Initiative” in the future.
Mr. Henry Tillman, Chairman of Grisons Peak Service
Mr. Dillman’s speech ends with"Greening the BRI via Technology and Innovation" is the theme. In his speech, Mr. Dillman showed everyone his team’s latest research results on the “Polar Silk Road”. Mr. Dillman believes that the "Polar Silk Road" initiative brings cooperation opportunities to promote polar connectivity and sustainable economic and social development. In terms of green development, the future Arctic route will be of great significance to the green and low-carbon development of East Asia and Europe in areas such as liquefied natural gas transportation and digital port construction. Mr. Dillman pointed out: Some people in Western countries have a distorted and wrong understanding of the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. China’s “One Belt, One Road” initiative aims to solve (development) problems with the world, but some Western media are always unwilling to admit this.

Mr. Perry emphasized relying on the power of science and technology to solve the global health crisis, energy crisis and climate crisis caused by the new coronavirus. He spoke highly of President Xi Jinping's goal of building a community with a shared future for mankind, which embodies the Chinese philosophy of Eastern wisdom, transcends the oppositional thinking of winners and losers, and pursues a win-win goal for mankind. Mr. Dillman used the China-Laos Railway as an example to refute the so-called "debt trap" view in the West. Mr. Dillman also cited China's provision of COVID-19 production technology and equipment to more than 20 countries along the "Belt and Road" as an example, and spoke highly of China's contribution to global health governance and its role as a model of South-South cooperation.
