The third Belt and Road Forum took place in Beijing from October 17-18. It marked the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative.
The Belt and Road Initiative is inspired by the Silk Road, an ancient network of trade routes that spanned the Asian and European continents for about 1,400 years until the mid-15th century. Its new iteration will link China with Central Asian nations, Russia and Europe by land, while maritime routes will connect it to Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa. By June 2023, more than 150 nations had signed Belt and Road cooperation pacts with China.
