[1]CONFERENZA INTERNAZIONALE “LUNGO LE VIE DELLA SETA”
10-11 luglio 2016
Venezia. Fondazione Giorgio Cini. Isola S.Giorgio Maggiore
Si è tenuta a Venezia, il 10 e 11 luglio 2016, la Conferenza internazionale “Along The Silk Roads”, “Lungo la Via della Seta”.
Organizzata da Fondazione per la Collaborazione tra i Popoli, Autorità Portuale di Venezia [2] e Nankai University (Center for the SILK ROAD STUDIES), con il supporto di Binhai New Area (Special Economic Zone in Tianjin), in cooperazione con TWAI, Center For Mediterranean Area Studies e Università Ca’ Foscari, la conferenza ha riunito a Venezia, presso la Fondazione Giorgio Cini nell’Isola di S.Giorgio Maggiore, esperti e rappresentanti delle istituzioni e della politica di tutta l’area euro-asiatica.
Introdotta dal Presidente Romano Prodi e dal Presidente dell’Autorità Portuale di Venezia Paolo Costa vi hanno partecipato il Ministro degli Esteri, Paolo Gentiloni, e delle Infrastrutture Graziano Delrio, il Ministro dei Trasporti austriaco Jörg Leichtfried, il Ministro russo per l’Integrazione euroasiatica Tatiana Valovaya oltre ad esponenti di diverse istituzioni e think thank di Cina, Asia ed Europa.
Le diverse tavole rotonde, organizzate con brevi interventi degli speaker e dibattiti tra gli ospiti in stile “Aspen”, hanno affrontato il tema del la realizzazione della nuova Via della Seta [3] di cui il porto di Venezia è indicato come terminale occidentale europeo [4].
La politica della “One Belt One Road” (OBOR), annunciata dal Presidente Xi Jinping a settembre 2013, muterà gli equilibri economici e strategici tra Asia e Europa e porterà i suoi riflessi fino all’Africa.
“One Belt, One Road” riunisce in un’unica iniziativa ingenti investimenti nelle ferrovie, nelle infrastrutture marittime ma prevede anche investimenti non necessariamente infrastrutturali. La nuova Via della Seta pone, infatti, importanti sfide e offre grandi opportunità [5] sia per la Cina che per l’Europa ma per essere davvero efficace si rendono necessarie comprensione reciproca e piena cooperazione tra le due Parti. Gli esperti hanno affrontato sia la “visione cinese” sia quella “europea” con l’obiettivo di individuare soluzioni per tutelare gli investimenti nelle infrastrutture ma anche per valutare il complesso impatto economico della nuova Via della Seta in termini commerciali e di competitività dei Paesi che ne saranno toccati.
