Almaty. May 28. Silkroadnews - Construction of the economic belt Silk Road allows China and Central Asia to strengthen cooperation, reports Xinhua news agency.
Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, hosted a Fair for Investment and Trade of eastern and western regions of China and the International Fair "Silk Road", which was attended by representatives from Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and other Central Asian countries.
The representative of the Ministry of Economy of Kyrgyzstan in China A. Mordokadyrov said that the purpose of participation in the fair was to find partners for the processing of agricultural products. Such types of products in Kyrgyzstan, as juices, honey, whiskey and others, are in great demand in Kashgar. We are interested in promoting these products to markets in other parts of China, explained the representative of the Ministry.
According to him, the strategy of "belt and the way" is already yielding the first positive results to boost the economy of the country.
