Abstract
The Belt and Road Initiative has made a series of important progress since 2013, when President Xi Jinping proposed the initiative of the “Silk Road Economic Belt” and “the 21st-Century Maritime Silk Road”, and has been upgraded to one of the important national strategies. As logistics infrastructure and services are both important contents and strategic support of the Belt and Road Initiative, with the practical promotion of the Initiative, the backwardness and insufficiency of logistics service capability have become increasingly prominent. It is urgent to form a convenient and smooth cross-border logistics channel network as well as high-quality and efficient logistics service capacity through strengthening consultation among countries along the Belt and Road to formulate stepwise logistics facilities planning, open up key channel nodes, and establish a market-oriented community of shared interests.
The author is Hong Junjie, dean and professor of School of International Trade and Economics, University of International Business and Economics.
