当前，逆全球化暗流涌动、单边主义和保护主义甚嚣尘上。在这样的背景下，“一带一路”倡议顺应时代潮流，坚持对话协商、共建共享、合作共赢、交流互鉴，为世界发展开启了新航程，为完善全球治理体系变革提供了新思路，为引领新一轮经济全球化打造了新平台。
英国议会此时成立跨党派“一带一路”和中巴经济走廊小组可谓恰逢其时，意义重大。
英国朋友经常问我，为什么“一带一路”能在短短5年内这么受欢迎？“一带一路”对中英关系意味着什么？对于第一个问题，我认为有三个原因：
Today the sentiments of anti-globalisation, unilateralism and protectionism are surging in some parts of the world. The BRI is following the mainstream trend of the times by advocating dialogue, consultation, joint contribution, shared benefits, win-win cooperation and mutual learning. It opens new prospects for the development in the world. It offers new ideas for the reform of the global governance system. It is a new platform for the new round of economic globalisation.
It is against this background that the APPG for the BRI and CPEC is established. I think this is both timely and significant.
My British friends often ask me:
Why has the BRI become so popular in just five years?
What does the BRI mean to China-UK relations?
Let me answer the first question first. I believe there are three reasons for the popularity of the BRI.
首先，“一带一路”是开放平等的“大家庭”，不是封闭狭隘的“小圈子”。“一带一路”倡议向全世界开放，致力促进各国经济融合发展，不以意识形态划界，不搞“零和游戏”，不主张取代谁、排挤谁，不走地缘博弈的老路。“一带一路”坚持“市场运作、公开透明、国际惯例、规则导向”，由大家一起商量着办。因此，“一带一路”的朋友圈不断扩大，得到越来越多国家的“信任票”和“支持票”。
First, the BRI is a "big family" of equal-footed members. It is a portal that is open to all. It is not a closed and exclusive "small coterie".
The BRI is open to the whole world:
It is committed to promoting integrated development of all economies; It rejects "zero sum game"
It does not toe any ideological line; It rejects geo-political games;
It is not intended to exclude or replace any one.
This is an open, transparent and rule-based Initiative. Partners of BRI follow market rules and internationally-accepted practice. Decisions are made through extensive consultation.
These are the reasons why the BRI has a growing circle of friends. An increasing number of countries have cast their vote of confidence and support.
