The initiative emphasizes that all countries are equal participants, contributors and beneficiaries, and encourages economic integration, interconnected development, and the sharing of achievements.

BRI proposed by China but belonging to whole world

The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) was launched by China, but it belongs to the world and benefits the whole of humanity, said a white paper released by China's State Council Information Office on Tuesday.

The white paper, titled "The Belt and Road Initiative: A Key Pillar of the Global Community of Shared Future," said China proposed the BRI in response to a changing global situation and the expectations of the international community, and with the future and overall interests of humanity in mind.

Drawing wisdom and strength from the ancient silk routes and the Silk Road spirit, the BRI targets development not only for China but for the world, and eyes to create a better world, it said.

With the Communist Party of China being a major political party with a global vision, and China a major country pursuing peaceful development, the BRI carries forward the Silk Road spirit in the new era, evokes the pleasant memories of the past and has fired many countries' enthusiasm for connectivity.
