Description

The China-Europe Railway Express is a key rail freight route for Chinese exports to the European Union, with 90% of rail freight between China and the EU passing through Poland. The route is part of China's Belt and Road Initiative, linking East Asia and Europe. Poland closed its border with Belarus, disrupting this rail freight route, which is worth approximately €25 billion annually. The closure was due to joint Russian-Belarusian military exercises and has caused delays and operational challenges for freight transport.
