The first is to consolidate and improve the development level of China-Europe trains. Deepen economic and trade cooperation with countries along the Belt and Road, and jointly expand the basic cooperation of China-Europe freight trains. While building and maintaining existing transportation routes, we will jointly develop new international transportation channels such as the Trans-Caspian Sea, promote the expansion and transformation of key port facilities, and comprehensively improve the infrastructure support capacity of China-Europe freight trains. We will continue to improve the service system of China-Europe freight trains and further enhance our competitiveness in the international transportation market. Coordinate and solve the problems of "blocking points" and "stuck points" in all links, promote the convergence of rules and standards, and continuously consolidate the foundation of international cooperation between China and Europe.
Second, we will make every effort to maintain the good development trend of China-Europe freight trains. Accelerate the improvement of the intergovernmental cooperation mechanism of the China-Europe Railway Express, strengthen communication and consultation in policy formulation, planning docking, facility connectivity, customs clearance facilitation, transportation organization, safety and security, etc., and build an international cooperation network for China-Europe Railway Express. Strengthen the safety risk management along the China-Europe Railway Express, deepen information exchange and cooperation, strengthen law enforcement cooperation, and jointly improve emergency response capabilities, so as to create a stable, safe and sustainable development environment for the China-Europe Railway Express.
The third is to comprehensively improve the quality and efficiency of the development of China-Europe trains. Strengthen the docking of market demand, development planning, cooperation platforms and facilities and projects of countries along the China-Europe Express, give full play to the unique advantages of China-Europe Express, and comprehensively improve the quality and efficiency of all links and processes of collection and distribution. Optimize the layout of China's China-Europe freight train assembly center, and continuously improve the quality and efficiency of cargo assembly. Coordinate and improve the operation mechanism and standardization of China-Europe freight trains, and improve the efficiency of transportation organization in an all-round way. While making the main channel bigger and stronger, we will make every effort to promote the diversification of the channel. Weave a dense network of China-Europe freight train feeder lines to form a "trunk and branch channel transportation system" with wide coverage and high collection and distribution efficiency. Steadily expand the timetable of the whole process of the China-Europe train, continue to improve the level of customs clearance facilitation along the line, and realize the informatization and intelligent development of the China-Europe train.
