MINSK — A seminar for young Sinologists was held on Feb 28 at the Republican Confucius Institute of Sinology at the Belarusian State University in Minsk.

More than 70 young Chinese and Belarusian experts and scholars from several universities and research institutes attended the conference in both online and offline presentations. Thematic discussions were held on key areas of China and China-Belarus cooperation in the new era.

Anatoly Tozik, director of the Confucius Institute of Sinology and former deputy prime minister of Belarus, says China has achieved remarkable development in recent years, and cooperation between Belarus and China has broad prospects.

A higher level of development in bilateral relations requires more advanced talents who understand the language and national conditions, he adds.

Tozik expresses optimism that participants will sincerely communicate and jointly promote academic and cultural exchanges between the two countries.

Chinese Ambassador to Belarus Zhang Wenchuan says that young scholars who love Chinese culture and follow China's development gathered at this seminar to inspire and learn from each other's experiences.

Zhang expects the seminar to provide a useful platform for Belarusian students and young scholars to gain a deeper understanding by studying contemporary China, and make greater contributions to raising the level of Belarusian research in the field of Chinese studies, as well as mutual learning and mutual improvement of scholars from the two countries.

Belarusian experts point out that directions for further collaborations are full of potential, including policies, industry and supply chains, economic development sustainability, and technological cooperation.

The seminar also delves into other areas, such as people-to-people exchanges between the two countries.
