风雨同行 携手向前

文：本刊记者 雷怡安

从2020年到2021年，新冠疫情阴霾还未散尽，全球多国形势依旧不容乐观。但全球经济在遭遇停摆后，正在逐渐恢复，信心也正在逐步重建。

这一场百年未遇的疫情，中国身处其中、深知其难。这样的“难”也反应在“一带一路”建设上：全球供应链受到冲击，工程建设速度放缓，配套资金与物质保障也难上加难……

对此，作为负责任的大国，中国克服阻力、迎难而上，誓将“一带一路”打造成合作之路、健康之路、复苏之路、增长之路。1月19日，国务院新闻办公室发布会上公布：虽然2020年新冠疫情让央企海外项目遭遇巨大困难，但“一带一路”的重点项目没有一例因此停工。

正如国务委员兼外交部部长王毅在2020年度“一带一路”国际合作高峰论坛咨询委员会会议上指出的，“一带一路”建设为各国抗疫情、稳经济、保民生发挥了重要作用。雅万高铁、中老铁路克服疫情影响顺利推进，多项重要节点工程开工或竣工；中白工业园2020年新增入园企业10家，累计入园企业已达65家，协议总投资12.2亿美元；格鲁吉亚E60高速公路竣工通车……一大批标志性项目的建成让世界惊叹！

在“一带一路”上，中国将继续践行好使命和担当。风雨同行、携手向前。

Looking back,it has been a year since COVID-19 broke out in 2020. But till today,the virus is still not fully tamed as it continues to take its toll in many countries worldwide. In the wake of the outbreak,the global economy was brought to a screeching halt. But now,the order is gradually regained and the confidence rebuilt.

Faced with the epidemic unseen in the past century,China,like other countries,is suffering and struggling. Such “struggling” can be felt in the Belt and Road building:As the global supply chain is disrupted,project construction has been slowed down,supporting capital and material guarantee has become difficult...

Against the backdrop,China as a major responsible country has risen to the challenge and renewed its commitment to building the Belt and Road Initiative （BRI） into a model of cooperation,health,recovery and growth. At the press conference held on January 19,the State Council Information Office announced that although the overseas projects undertaken by China’s central state-owned enterprises take a hard hit from COVID-19 throughout 2020,construction of none of those key BRI projects has been suspended.

Just as Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said at the meeting of the Advisory Council of the 2020 Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation,cooperation under BRI has played an important role in fighting the epidemic,stabilizing the economy and protecting people’s livelihoods in the Belt and Road countries. Notwithstanding the epidemic,Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway and China-Laos Railway made smooth progress with multiple major node projects commencing or completing construction; China-Belarus Industrial Park attracted ten new resident enterprises in 2020,with the total resident enterprises reaching 65 and the combined contractual investment hitting USD 1.22 billion. Georgia E60 international expressway was opened to traffic... Many representative projects undertaken by Chinese enterprises have amazed the world!

Looking ahead,we will further advance BRI cooperation to fulfill our mission and responsibility and forge ahead together with other BRI countries,come rain or shine.
