The 2nd Belt and Road International Skills Competition (BRISC) will be held in southwest China's Chongqing municipality from June 24 to 26. The event will attract over 300 participants, referees, and related personnel from 60 countries and regions.

Co-hosted by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the National Development and Reform Commission, the 2nd BRISC upholds the principles of 'Openness, Intelligence, Green Development, Safety, and Uniqueness.' The competition will feature 18 competition events, modeled after the World Skills Competition (WSC).

"Highlighting precise matching, the competition events of the 2nd BRISC include 11 world-class competition events and seven other events tailored to the industrial development demands of Belt and Road participating countries. Additionally, we have considered the industrial structures of China, particularly Chongqing, and the new quality productive forces to design these events. The seven tailored events are closely aligned with the realities of industrial technical development and the demands for nurturing technical talent," said Wang Xiaojun, deputy director general of the Department of Vocational Capacity Building under the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.

The 2nd BRISC will feature multiple formats and parallel activities to promote cooperation, project signing, and results transformation among BRI participating countries in skills exchanges and collaboration.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Omer Mohamed Ahmed Siddig, the outgoing Sudanese ambassador to China and the newly appointed foreign minister of Sudan, in Beijing on Wednesday.

Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, congratulated Siddig on his assumption of office as Sudanese foreign minister, and expressed appreciation for his contributions to promoting the development of China-Sudan relations during his tenure as ambassador to China.

Noting that this year marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the strategic partnership between China and Sudan, Wang called on both sides to implement the important consensus reached between the two heads of state, promote continuous fruitful results in the bilateral relations, and bring benefits to the two peoples.

China supports Sudan firmly in safeguarding its sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity, and supports Sudan in achieving peace, stability and development at an early date, said Wang, adding that China will continue to provide humanitarian assistance within its own capacity.

Siddig said that Sudan regards China as its most important partner and a trustworthy friend, prioritizes cooperation with China, and will continue to support China firmly in safeguarding its core interests.

As the new foreign minister, he will continue to spare no effort to promote the development of the Sudan-China strategic partnership, and will work collaboratively to implement a series of important global initiatives proposed by China.
