Wang said the forum is not only the highlight in commemorative events to mark the BRI's 10th anniversary, but also an important platform for all partners to plan high-quality Belt and Road cooperation.

«China is in communication with all parties concerned on the preparation for the forum,» Wang added.

Wang said the BRI has evolved from broad strokes to refined details, and become the most popular international public good and largest-scale international cooperation platform with remarkable achievements since it was proposed 10 years ago.

Over the past decade, the BRI's circle of friends has continued to expand, Wang said, adding that China has signed Belt and Road cooperation documents with more than 150 countries and over 30 international organizations.
