Belarus-Gansu Media Platform Launch Builds on ICC Office Formation
On May 20-25, 2025, in Gansu Province (甘肅省), Andrei Krivosheyev, chairman of the Belarusian Union of Journalists (白俄羅斯記者聯盟) and chairman of the Board of Directors of Minsk News Agency (明斯克新聞社), led a Belarusian media delegation visiting to examine Gansu’s economic and social development and inspect projects in culture, new energy, environmental protection, international logistics, and water-saving agriculture. Building on cooperation established in 2023 when the province’s Gansu International Communication Center (甘肅省國際傳播中心), or GICC, opened an office in the Belarus Journalists Union, the delegation met with Gansu Daily (甘肅日報) newspaper representatives and launched a new media platform for “information exchange,” with attendees including China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (中華人民共和國外交部) representatives, local government officials, and All-China Journalists Association (中華全國新聞工作者協會) Vice President Li Xiaojun (李曉軍). The organizations claimed the visit would “comprehensively promote and report on new achievements of Chinese-style modernization practice in Gansu” and explore cooperation to jointly tell “Silk Road stories” and “China-Belarus friendship stories” (中白友好故事) within “all-weather and all-round Belarus-China strategic partnership” frameworks.
