Minsk, November 6 (Xinhua) — The China International Import Expo (CIIE) is one of the most important tools China uses to demonstrate openness and, in practice, enable countries to tap into the Chinese market. Sergei Vergeichik, an analyst at the Belarusian Institute for Strategic Studies (BISS), explained this in an exclusive interview with Xinhua in Minsk.

"It's no secret that China has developed into a very capacious market, which many countries want to enter," noted S. Vergeichik, emphasizing that China is not only developing itself but also offering development opportunities to its partners.

The expert noted that Belarus is also interested in promoting its products in the Chinese market. "Belarus is entering into economic competition with other global players for a place in the Chinese market in its traditional exports, such as food and timber products. All Eurasian countries, including Belarus, have the opportunity to prove their competitiveness and enter the large Chinese market. Moreover, this process is mutually beneficial," he explained.

S. Vergeichik also emphasized that Chinese-Belarusian relations have reached their highest level. "But I must add that they have reached their highest level since the establishment of diplomatic relations. This does not mean that we should limit ourselves in any way and not move forward," he noted.

According to S. Vergeichik, Belarus and China must develop traditional areas while simultaneously moving forward and exploring new vectors. "At the same time, we need to increase bilateral trade. China has a large market, and Belarusian export potential is great," the BISI analyst said.
