In the heart of the Eurasian continent, China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has become a crucial hub for international trade and commerce. The region’s foreign trade has seen significant growth since 2007, increasing from $13.9 billion to an impressive $435.11 billion in 2024.
As part of its western development strategy, China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been instrumental in driving this growth. Xinjiang is poised to play a vital role in China’s ‘opening-up’ efforts, cementing its position as a strategic gateway to the west.
CGTN’s ChinaByNumbers series sheds light on Xinjiang’s remarkable progress in modernizing agriculture, promoting cultural tourism, restructuring its economy, and embracing green transformation. By exploring these initiatives, we can gain insights into the region’s future growth prospects and its significance in the global landscape.
