Henan Donates Medical Supplies to Europe via China-Europe Railway Express

河南赠抗疫物资搭中欧班列(郑州)运往欧洲


On the afternoon of April 26, a launch ceremony was held at Zhengzhou International Hub Development and Construction Co., Ltd. More than 360 thousand medical masks and 10 thousand protective suits donated by Henan Provincial People’s Government will be sent to Europe via China-Europe Railway Express (Zhengzhou).

4月26日下午,中欧班列(郑州)承运河南省政府捐赠欧洲抗疫物资启运仪式在郑州国际陆港举行,36万余只口罩和1万套防护服将搭乘出口班列运往欧洲。

The medical supplies are stacked neatly with a message of “United we can overcome  difficulties, sharing weal and woe” on each box, expressing the best wishes of Henan Provincial People’s Government to its international sister cities.

一箱箱防疫物资码放得整整齐齐,纸箱的侧面,张贴着河南省政府捐赠给国际友城的信息,上书“同舟共济、共克时艰”八个大字。


Raised by Henan Provincial People’s Government and Henan Muyuan Group for Chinese Embassy in Poland, Chinese Embassy in Romania, Lublin Voivodeship of Poland, Braila and Ialomita of Romania as well as Hamburg of Germany, these donations are bound to help the local people, overseas Chinese and students defeat the COVID-19 pandemic, said Fu Jing, director-general of the Office of Foreign Affairs Committee of the CPC Henan Provincial Committee.

据河南省委外办主任付静介绍,这批抗疫物资是河南省政府联合省内爱心企业牧原集团向中国驻波兰使馆、驻罗马尼亚使馆和波兰卢布林省,罗马尼亚布勒伊拉省、雅洛米察省以及德国汉堡市等国际友城捐赠,用于支援当地和华侨华人、留学生抗击疫情。


At present, the COVID-19 pandemic is spreading globally. China Railway Express between Zhengzhou and Europe, as an important part of the global transport system, has become a significant logistics channel for medical supplies transportation.

随着疫情的全球蔓延,中欧班列作为世界运输体系的重要组成部分,已成为了防疫物资运输的重要物流通道。


China-Europe Railway Express (Zhengzhou) is not only a “golden channel” connecting international trade, but also an important embodiment of the “Land Silk Road” in Henan. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, Henan has spared no efforts to ensure that China-Europe Railway Express (Zhengzhou)—serving as a “mobile line” for the countries along the Belt and Road to fight against the pandemic—could run as usual and give full play to its “ripple effect”, which has helped to build a green channel for European countries to obtain medical supplies and daily necessities timely, and provide transportation support to secure the global industrial chain and supply chain.

中欧班列(郑州)是连接国际贸易运输的重要黄金通道和河南“陆上丝绸之路”的重要载体。疫情发生以来,河南全力推进中欧班列(郑州)战略运输通道安全高效畅通,充分发挥其“脉动效应”,为欧洲国家及时获得医疗物资和生活必需品搭建了绿色通道,为保障全球产业链、供应链安全提供了运输支撑,成为“一带一路”沿线国家共抗疫情的坚固“流动防线”。


As the pandemic has been effectively controlled in China, a large number of medical supplies have been transported to the rest of the world via China-Europe Railway Express (Zhengzhou). In April alone, 35 batches of 144 tons of medical supplies have been exported to Central Asia and Europe via freight trains.

据介绍,国内疫情得到有效控制后,大量的防疫物资通过中欧班列(郑州)运往世界各地。仅4月份,通过班列出口到中亚和欧洲的防疫物资共35批次、144吨。


Up to now, taking concrete actions to uphold the idea of building a community with a shared future for mankind, the governments at all levels, enterprises, chambers of commerce and business across Henan have donated 94 batches of medical supplies worth of over 12 million yuan to 31 countries including Italy, South Korea, Japan, Luxembourg, France, Germany, Britain, etc. In the future, Henan will mainly donate medical supplies to Africa and Latin America to support the global anti-pandemic war with Henan’s strength.

截至目前,河南各级政府、企业、商会协会等以实际行动践行人类命运共同体理念,已向意大利、韩国、日本、卢森堡、法国、德国、英国等31个国家捐赠94批防疫物资,总价值超过1200万元。接下来,河南还将重点向非洲和拉丁美洲捐赠防疫物资,支援全球战“疫”,贡献“中原力量”。(记者王延辉 编译赵汉青 审校白玉杰)
