摘要

Since the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative nearly eight years ago,important progress has been made in economic and energy trade cooperation.In terms of the energy industry,the Belt and Road Initiative is also an road to energy,and countries along the Belt and Road are important partners for China in crude oil and oil products trade.1 In 2020,as the global oil demand fell to an unprecedented low and the energy industry suffered a major setback due to the impact of COVID-19,China's energy trade with countries along the Belt and Road Initiative bucked the trend.2In the medium and long run,energy cooperation between China and countries along the Belt and Road Initiative enjoys broad prospects in the context of China's goals of achieving carbon neutrality and peaking carbon dioxide emissions and vigorous promotion of energy transition.
