China and Central Asian countries are friendly neighbors and comprehensive strategic partners. In 2013, President Xi Jinping visited Central Asia and proposed the initiative of jointly building the "Silk Road Economic Belt". For the past 10 years, China and Central Asian countries have worked together to promote the comprehensive revitalization of the Silk Road, and have made every effort to create deep cooperation for the future, bringing the bilateral relationship into a new era. In 2022, the heads of state of the six countries jointly announced the building of a community of shared future between China and Central Asia, which is a historic sexual selection made in the new era, with the fundamental interests of all peoples and a bright future in mind. Today, political mutual trust between China and the five Central Asian countries is constantly deepening, practical cooperation is improving and upgrading, international cooperation is deepening and strengthening, achieving full coverage of comprehensive strategic partnership and full coverage of a community with a shared future for mankind at the bilateral level. The six heads of state attended this summit to discuss the cooperation plan between China and the five Central Asian countries, jointly signed the Xi'an Declaration of the China-Central Asia Summit, passed the list of summit outcomes, and charted a blueprint for the future development of China-Central Asian relations. The successful hosting of this summit has built a new platform for cooperation between China and Central Asia, opened up new prospects, and is of milestone significance in the development history of China's relations with Central Asian countries.

Currently, the century long changes are accelerating their evolution, and the world, times, and history are unfolding in unprecedented ways. The international and regional situation is undergoing profound and complex changes. What kind of Central Asia does the world need in the face of an international situation full of instability and uncertainty? President Xi Jinping gave a profound answer in his keynote speech: a stable Central Asia, a prosperous Central Asia, a harmonious Central Asia, and a connected Central Asia. It must be deeply recognized that Central Asia is the center of the Eurasian continent, located at a crossroads that connects east and west and runs through north and south. Only by safeguarding the sovereignty, security, independence, and territorial integrity of Central Asian countries, respecting the development path chosen by the Central Asian people, and supporting the efforts of the Central Asian region to promote peace, harmony, and tranquility, can we lay the foundation for stability in Central Asia; Only by being full of vitality, thriving, and maintaining prosperity and development can Central Asia achieve the aspirations of people from all countries in the region for a better life and inject strong impetus into the recovery and development of the world economy; Only by pursuing unity, inclusiveness, and harmony, opposing anyone's creation of discord and opposition in Central Asia, and seeking political self-interest from it, and creating conditions for people to live and work in peace and contentment, can we achieve harmony in Central Asia; Only by leveraging its unique geographical advantages and becoming an important hub for connectivity on the Eurasian continent can Central Asia contribute to world commodity exchange, cultural exchange, and technological development.

The "Four Persistences" proposed by President Xi Jinping in his keynote speech are of great significance and far-reaching impact for jointly building a community with a shared future between China and Central Asia. Adhering to mutual assistance and observation means deepening strategic mutual trust and always providing clear and strong support to each other on core interests such as sovereignty, independence, national dignity, and long-term development. To adhere to common development is to continue to take the lead in co building the "the Belt and Road" cooperation, promote the implementation of global development initiatives, fully release the potential of traditional cooperation in economy and trade, production capacity, energy, transportation, and create new growth points in finance, agriculture, poverty reduction, green low-carbon, health care, and digital innovation. To adhere to universal security is to jointly implement the global security initiative, resolutely oppose external interference in the internal affairs of countries in the region, instigate the "color revolution", maintain zero tolerance for the "three forces", and strive to solve the regional security dilemma. Adhering to generational friendship means practicing the Global Civilization Initiative, continuing traditional friendship, close personnel exchanges, strengthening the exchange of experience in governance, deepening mutual learning among civilizations, enhancing mutual understanding, and building the foundation of generational friendship between China and the people of Central Asian countries. The practice tells us and will continue to prove that, in the direction of building a community of shared future between China and Central Asia, all countries will work together to achieve the "Four Adherences", actively promote common development, common prosperity and common prosperity, and will certainly build a community of mutual help, solidarity and mutual trust, a community of win-win cooperation and mutual achievements, a community far from conflict, and a community of eternal peace, a community of mutual understanding and mutual affinity A community of unity and virtue.

Deepening China-Central Asia cooperation is a strategic decision made with a focus on the future, in line with the global trend, and in line with the expectations of the people. In his keynote speech, President Xi Jinping, starting from the overall plan, construction, and development of China-Central Asia cooperation, clearly proposed eight suggestions, including "strengthening mechanism construction," "expanding economic and trade relations," "deepening connectivity," "expanding energy cooperation," "promoting green innovation," "enhancing development capabilities," "strengthening civilization dialogue," and "maintaining regional peace," and solemnly announced a series of practical measures to deepen cooperation, We are willing to strengthen modernization concepts and practical exchanges with Central Asian countries, promote development strategy alignment, create more opportunities for cooperation, and work together to promote the modernization process of the six countries. This fully demonstrates the great responsibility of building a community with a shared future for mankind, and fully reflects the firm determination and practical action to promote win-win cooperation between China and Central Asian countries. Practice has fully proven that no matter how the international situation changes and to what extent China develops in the future, China will always be a trustworthy and trustworthy good neighbor, good partner, good friend, and good brother of Central Asian countries. It will always be a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, a maintainer of international order, and a provider of public goods.

History tells us that only by embracing the world can we embrace tomorrow; Only by working together can we achieve stability and progress. Chinese path to modernization not only benefits the Chinese people, but also promotes the common development of the world. It is a broad road for us to build a strong country and revive our nation, and it is also the only way for China to seek human progress and world harmony. Facing the future, China firmly stands on the right side of history and the progress of human civilization, and continues to provide new opportunities for the world with China's new development. We sincerely welcome Central Asian countries to take the China Development Express. With the joint efforts of everyone, we will build a closer community with a shared future between China and Central Asia. The ship of China's relations with Central Asian countries will surely ride the wind and waves, bravely move forward, add new assistance to the development and revitalization of the six countries, inject strong positive energy into regional peace and stability, and jointly create a better tomorrow for China-Central Asia cooperation.
