President Xi Jinping's upcoming visit to Serbia, Poland and Uzbekistan is expected to enhance cooperation with the countries on the Belt and Road projects, experts said.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said on Monday that Xi will start an eight-day trip to the three countries beginning on Friday. During the trip, Xi will also attend the meeting of the Council of Heads of State of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, to be held in Tashkent, capital of Uzbekistan, on June 23 and 24.
