Core Viewpoint - Xinjiang, as China's largest province by land area, is being positioned as a crucial hub for the Silk Road Economic Belt, enhancing its role in domestic and international dual circulation [5][30]. Economic Growth - Xinjiang's GDP has surged from 900 billion to over 2 trillion, with an average annual growth rate of 7% over the past decade, placing it in the first tier of economic growth [9][11]. - The province's foreign trade has seen significant growth, with imports and exports reaching 356.3 billion yuan from January to August this year, a year-on-year increase of 25.4%, surpassing provinces like Hunan and Shaanxi [13][15]. Key Economic Drivers - The three main factors driving Xinjiang's economic rise are: 1. **Foreign Trade**: Benefiting from geopolitical shifts, Xinjiang has become a major player in foreign trade, with a notable increase in trade volume over the past three years [12][15]. 2. **Energy Resources**: Xinjiang is a key area for energy production, leading the nation in oil and gas output, and ranking high in coal and renewable energy installations [17][18]. 3. **Agricultural Development**: The province has transformed into a significant agricultural hub, with a projected grain output of 46.6 billion jin in 2024, ranking 13th nationally, and achieving the highest grain yield per mu [20]. Strategic Positioning - Xinjiang is being redefined as a strategic point for national security and economic development, with five strategic roles outlined in the new planning: a gateway for Eurasian trade, a strategic support point for new development patterns, a national energy resource base, a key supplier of high-quality agricultural products, and a strategic security barrier [30][31]. Infrastructure Development - Major infrastructure projects are underway, including the new Tibet-Xinjiang railway and the Duku Highway, which will enhance connectivity and economic integration [32][38]. - Xinjiang is also expanding its airport network, with plans for 33 new civil airports, significantly increasing its transportation capacity [39][42].
