After a lapse of 5 years, in 2022, China once again became the chairman of the BRICS country, and will host a series of activities such as the 14th meeting of the BRICS leaders.

In order to promote the world's peaceful and stable development, strengthen the unity and cooperation of the international community, and promote the reform of the global governance system, the influence and attractiveness of the BRICS mechanism are increasing. "

In 2001, Golden's former chief economist Jim O'Neal first proposed the concept of the "BRICS country". In September 2006, the Foreign Minister of Brazil, Russia, India and China held the first meeting, and the BRICS countries officially started the cooperation. "Since its establishment, the BRICS countries have deepened their unity and coordination through continuous communication and coordination, and achieved coordinated development. The level of economic and trade investment among member states has continued to improve. Humanistic exchanges have become increasingly closer, and the identity of the BRICS countries has further deepened." He Luyang said.

As the first letter of the BRICS country, Brazil has achieved fruitful cooperation with China, especially in the field of economy and trade. Brazil is the eighth largest trading partner country in China, and China has maintained the position of Brazil's largest trading partner for 13 consecutive years. Bilateral trade exceeded $ 100 billion for four consecutive years. Facing the impact of the new crown epidemic, China -Pakistan trade showed strong toughness and vitality.

In fact, the cooperation of the BRICS countries is not limited to the field of economic and trade, and has extensive cooperation in many fields such as scientific and technological innovation and green low -carbon. At the sixth meeting of the China -Pakistan High -level Coordination and Cooperation Committee recently held, leaders of the two countries also proposed new opportunities for excavating energy transformation and low -carbon economy.

In 2010, Tsinghua University cooperated with the Federal University of Rio de Jane in Brazil to establish a research center for China -Pakistan climate change and energy technology innovation, becoming an important platform for scientific and cultural exchanges in the field of clean energy and climate change in the two countries. Under the coordination of the center, China -Pakistan has jointly promoted the industrialization demonstration of "enzyme production of biological diesel" and "solar thermal use" and other technologies with independent intellectual property rights in Brazil. The power grid created a "golden business card" for China -Pakistan Green Energy Cooperation; in March 2019, the second -phase UHV transmission project of the beautiful mountains in Brazil achieved the entire board, becoming an important for China to promote the "Belt and Road" initiative in Brazil and even Latin America, Brazil and even Latin America.

Since the beginning of this year, it has been affected by the new crown epidemic and international situation, and grain safety issues have attracted much attention. On June 8th, the Twelfth BRICS Agricultural Minister's Meeting was held in videos, focusing on global food security, poverty reduction and other fields, and conducted in -depth exchanges on further deepening of pragmatic cooperation in the agricultural and rural fields. Thanks to the promotion and deepening of the bilateral relations between China and Pakistan, the agricultural cooperation between the two countries has achieved fruitful results.

In 2020, under the situation where the new crown epidemic led to global trade downturn, China -Pakistan agricultural trade increased against the trend. Brazil's exports to China ’s agricultural products increased by nearly 10%to 34 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for one -third of Brazil's agricultural products exports, exporting to China, exporting to China Half. Last year, Brazil's exports to China ’s agricultural products reached 410.02 billion US dollars, an increase of 20.6%over the previous year. In He Luyang's opinion, in the moment when the safety of food has attracted much attention, China and Pakistan deepen the prospects of agricultural cooperation. "" The two countries can not only sign a bilateral agreement through commercial signing to promote the convenience of China -Pakistan agricultural trade investment, but also create agricultural infrastructure infrastructure. Logistics system, innovative digital agriculture, promoting green low -carbon agriculture, expanding technology and personnel exchanges to strengthen cooperation. "

At present, the international situation is complicated and changing, and the risk challenges have increased significantly. He Luyang believes that China and Pakistan can increase pragmatic cooperation from the following aspects: first, promote the facilitation of agricultural trade investment between the two countries; the other is to strengthen renewable energy cooperation cooperation. The third is to use the effects of scientific and technological innovation on bilateral economic and trade. In addition, the two countries can start from bilateral relations, through enhancement of political mutual trust, strengthen economic and trade exchanges, close humanistic exchanges, and continuously enrich the connotation of comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Pakistan, and ensure the security and development benefits of the two countries. At the same time, we should strengthen the multilateral fields.
