New documentary reveals Xinjiang's achievements under BRI

A new documentary, The Belt and Road Initiative and Xinjiang, will premiere on CCTV and CGTN on Monday, showcasing Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region's achievements in international cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative.

The four-part series, co-produced by the Xinjiang Foreign Affairs Office and China Media Group, offers a comprehensive view of Xinjiang's strategic role in the BRI, its economic development, international partnerships, and cultural exchanges.

"Xinjiang has long been a key hub for China's external exchanges, and the BRI has brought significant achievements. We aim to showcase these through the documentary," said Xu Guixiang, Party secretary of the Xinjiang Foreign Affairs Office, during a media briefing on Sunday.

The documentary will air from October 14 to 17 on CCTV International and CGTN's Arabic channels, followed by broadcasts on CGTN's English, French, Spanish, and Russian channels.
