In this context, the initiative, "forms a synergy with Junker Plan and development plans of countries along the route, it can effectively drive the growth of underdeveloped areas in Asia and Europe and promote harmony and stability of the whole region," he added.
Over 100 countries in Africa, Europe and Latin America in addition and international organizations supported China's initiative to further promote links between Asia and Europe, however, more work is still needed, Zeng Peiyan told the gathering in Paris.
"We need joint participation of all parties, just as diversified birds and flowers make beautiful spring. The development of the Belt and Road Initiative also needs the active participation of all countries," he said.
