The Port of Hamburg has become the largest sea-rail combined port in Europe thanks to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).
About one-third of freighters at the Port of Hamburg are bound for China or originate there, and more than 30 international cargo trains commute between Hamburg and Chinese cities every week, said Peter Tschentscher, the first mayor of Hamburg at the Shanghai-Hamburg Business Forum on Monday.
The BRI has boosted Hamburg’s role as the gateway for Chinese enterprises to enter Europe and has brought us new opportunities of development, he said.
