Abstract: Since President Xi Jinping drew up the blueprint for the construction of the Belt and Road in 2013, the Belt and Road Initiative has been increasingly enriched and its practice has been deepened. The Middle East countries, which are widely distributed in Asia and Africa, are natural partners for China to promote the Belt and Road Initiative, and many of them are important pivot countries along the Belt and Road, which makes the Initiative a logical choice for Middle Eastern countries. The initiative has become the main channel for Middle Eastern countries to seek all-round cooperation with China under the general trend of looking east. As a defender of peace and stability, a defender of justice and a promoter of common development in the Middle East, China is committed to using the Belt and Road cooperation as the main grip to promote the leapfrog development of China's diplomacy with the Middle East in the new era. Under the framework of One Belt, One Road, China and the Middle East countries have been exploring new areas of cooperation and have achieved remarkable results, and the opportunities for cooperation between the two sides are huge and promising.
