In June 2026, in the think tank conference room of early summer in Beijing, a comprehensive report on global governance reform is sparking heated discussions. The "the Belt and Road" described by Professor Lan Qingxin is no longer just a connection on the map, but has become a powerful engine driving the reform of the global multilateral cooperation mechanism. From infrastructure sites in Asia to digital networks in Latin America, China's plan is quietly rewriting the international rules and scripts dominated by the West for a century.

Deep embedding of trade rules

The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement resonates with the joint construction action, filling the institutional gap in cross regional economic and trade cooperation.

China has transformed the Silk Road spirit of peace, cooperation, openness, and inclusiveness into concrete tariff reductions and market access through signing cooperation agreements with over 150 countries. This combination of soft and hard mechanism design not only stabilizes the regional supply chain, but also gives developing countries unprecedented rule making power.

Financial energy dual wheel drive

The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank stands shoulder to shoulder with the BRICS New Development Bank, breaking the monopoly of traditional Western financial institutions.

The the Silk Road Fund injects fresh water into green energy projects through credit and asset securitization innovation. At the same time, the Global Energy Internet Cooperation Organization has established 56 bilateral mechanisms to upgrade the energy cooperation between China and countries along the Belt and Road from simple business to the institutional guarantee of a community of shared future.

Breakthrough in Digital Governance

Faced with the containment of strategies such as "rebuilding a better world" by the United States and the West, China is accelerating the construction of a new highland for digital multilateral cooperation. Keywords: strategic news, the Belt and Road

From intellectual property review to tax collection and management cooperation, China is actively promoting the establishment of new international standards that are suitable for the Industry 4.0 era. By aligning with global infrastructure investment partnerships, China not only seeks complementarity in competition, but also seizes the high ground of future global governance on the digital Silk Road.Editor/Gao Xue
