The expo, which will run until June 30, covers an area of 140,000 square meters with four major exhibition zones focusing on investment cooperation, international exhibitions, special industries, and equipment manufacturing.

"We can connect with enterprises from northwest China at the expo, which is both a great opportunity and an urgent matter. We believe there is much untapped potential in the northwest China market," said Anna Prineslik, head of the exhibition department at the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
According to Prineslik, an increasing number of Belarusian companies are entering the Chinese market, primarily focusing on dairy and meat products.
"People in Xinjiang are very friendly, and I'm glad to be here to explore more business opportunities. I hope I can come here at least once a year," she added.

Echoing Prineslik's sentiments, Ghulam Qadir, trade and investment counselor at the Embassy of Pakistan in China, told People's Daily Online that Xinjiang is attractive to Pakistani businesses due to its proximity to Pakistan.
"I was here last year and saw the vibrant business cooperation between our two nations. Pakistan has many good products that we want to export to China, and our cooperation now covers many areas, including agriculture, textiles, leather products, and machinery," he said.
Qadir highlighted the unique allure of Xinjiang's lifestyle and culture, expressing his satisfaction with the growing presence of Pakistani businesses in the region.
He added that the expo has led to numerous notable cooperative achievements, bolstered economic and trade ties between China and Eurasia, and facilitated people-to-people exchanges.
