The Belt and Road Initiative is winning increasing plaudits from political parties in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), as concrete projects have already offered visible benefits to the region, according to delegates attending the 2017 China-CEE Countries Political Parties Dialogue ending yesterday in the Romanian capital of Bucharest.
This is especially true after four years of development of the Initiative since it was first proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping in 2013. Many countries have begun to shift from looking-on to full participation as they get to know more about the Initiative and discover how it can be tailored or exploited to meet their own needs.
"There are few things all political parties in Poland agree on, but the Belt and Road Initiative is certainly one are looking forward to," said Michal Ludwikowski, member of the Polish People's Party Supreme Council and general director of Polish Economic Congress Foundation.
Ludwikowski said his party, the oldest in Poland, is an active participation. Together with Chinese partners, Poland has established a Joint Committee for Advancement of the Belt and Road with offices in Warsaw and Beijing. Its flagship project is to establishment of an accounting currency for international trade and settlement purposes, especially between countries involved in the Initiative.
