Baku, November 3 (Xinhua) — The China International Import Expo (CIIE) is a unique platform through which China demonstrates its willingness to open its market to the outside world and share its economic growth opportunities, Elbrus Mamedov, director of the Georgian Silk Road Center for Expert Analysis, said in an interview with Xinhua.
Since 2018, China has held the CIIE annually, the world's first national-level international import exhibition. E. Mamedov believes that holding this exhibition is one of China's important measures to deepen its openness.
"The CIIE is the practical embodiment of China's high-level opening-up policy, which encompasses not only openness in trade but also in investment, standards, technology, and culture. It is a platform for imports and international cooperation, where China buys and opens up to the world," the expert emphasized.
In 2025, companies from 123 countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative, including Georgia, will participate in the CIIE. E. Mamedov noted that the exhibition will help expand foreign companies' access to the Chinese market and strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation within the Belt and Road Initiative.
"Many Eurasian countries, including Georgia, use the CIIE as a platform to promote agricultural products—wine, honey, nuts, and oils—while many companies present their new technologies for the first time at this exhibition," he noted.
China's policy of high-level openness and its integration into the global economy, based on principles of equality and mutual benefit, are having a global impact—building trust, removing barriers, and developing new trade standards, added E. Mamedov.
