The Belt and Road News Network (Chinese: 一带一路新闻合作联盟; pinyin: yī dài yī lù xīn wén hé zuò lián méng) (BRNN), is a Beijing-based news media association announced by General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Xi Jinping in May 2017 at the first Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation.[1] The network was officially launched in April 2019 and chaired by the People's Daily, the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.[1][2][3] According to a 2020 report by Asia Society, the BRNN exists "to disseminate favorable content, host all-expenses-paid workshops, and serve as a centralized source of information on BRI. The network predictably frames the BRI and China in a positive light and has member media outlets in more than 26 countries."[4]
