From high-speed railways to smart factories, China and Serbia are rewriting the rules of global partnership! 🌍 Reporter Wang Guan toured Serbia’s buzzing infrastructure sites, where cranes dot the skyline and Chinese-backed projects like the Belgrade-Budapest Railway are connecting cities faster than a TikTok trend. 🚄✨
More Than Just Concrete
The two nations signed a historic Free Trade Agreement in October 2023, slashing tariffs on 90% of goods. Think electric cars from China and premium Serbian raspberries hitting shelves worldwide. 🍇🔋 'This isn’t just about trade—it’s about trust,' says Chinese Ambassador Li Ming, who sat down with Wang Guan to discuss the three pillars of cooperation: tech, sustainability, and cultural exchange.
Dismissing the Drama
Western critics claim China’s Balkan moves are 'political chess,' but Ambassador Li fires back: 'Serbia chooses partners freely. Our work speaks for itself.' 🔥 From Huawei’s 5G networks to joint green energy parks, the collaboration is turbocharging Serbia’s economy—and proving skeptics wrong.
