On the afternoon of June 18, the 2021 Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO)
International Round Table was successfully held in Lianyungang city, Jiangsu
province. The conference was co-hosted by the Secretariat of the SCO and
Lianyungang Municipal People's Government, with the theme of "enhancing
international cooperation in economy and trade, and promoting facilitation in
merchandise exports and imports among SCO member states".
The SCO Secretariat and relevant officials from SCO member states, observer
countries, and dialogue partner countries participated in the meeting in the
form of "online + offline". The meeting was chaired by Fang Wei, the Mayor of
Lianyungang city. Vladimir Norov, Secretary-General of the SCO Secretariat, Hui
Jianlin, Deputy Governor of Jiangsu Province, and Xiang Xuelong, Secretary of
the CPC Lianyungang Municipal Committee delivered speeches.
As a strong fulcrum for the Belt and Road intersection and the important node
city in the New Eurasian Continental Bridge Economic Corridor, Lianyungang
assumes the role of a two-way opening window and a sea-land conversion hub. In
recent years, with the vigorous economic development of the SCO countries and
the in-depth implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative, Lianyungang is
making every effort to build the SCO overseas base and the China-Kazakhstan
logistics cooperation base. The cooperation effects and demonstration effects
achieved caused widespread concern.
On the basis of the cooperation results of the first SCO Round Table, using the
SCO's actual needs and long-term development of international industrial
cooperation and special product trade as entry point, this year's meeting aims
at new trends and explores new ideas, new countermeasures, and constructs the
international logistics cooperation relationship of mutual respect, mutual
support, and win-win cooperation.
Participants affirmed the important contribution of Lianyungang in the SCO
member states in fighting the COVID-19 and coping with its negative impact, and
noted the huge development potential of port of Lianyungang, and believed that
the urban logistics and industrial clusters should be used more actively. It is
to strengthen the multilateral cooperation and exchanges in the SCO Free Trade
Zone, and develop cooperation in the transportation, transshipment and
processing of transnational goods under the framework of the national strategy
and the Belt and Road Initiative.
