Chinese and French officials and opinion leaders believe the Belt and Road Initiative will bring great benefits to the global community.
The BRI, launched by China in 2013, is aimed at building infrastructure and connectivity between regions to promote social and economic development. So far, China has signed about 170 BRI documents with countries, regions and international organizations, including 60 in 2018 alone.
Chinese Ambassador to France Zhai Jun described the BRI as a "widely popular public good and cooperation platform in the world".
