Arab States are located at the western end of “The Belt and Road”，which is an important partner for China to promote the construction of “The Belt and Road” Initiative. It is found that the current economic and trade cooperation between China and Arab countries has a good foundation and broad prospects，the cooperation mechanism has been continuously enriched and the cooperation blueprint has been gradually improved. 2016 is an important year for China and Arab States to comprehensively promote the “1 + 2 + 3” cooperation pattern of “The Belt and Road” Initiative，among which energy cooperation occupies the main share of bilateral trade and is the main body of economic and trade development between China and Arab States，infrastructure construction and trade and investment facilitation are the two wings of China-Arab economic and trade cooperation，and nuclear energy，space satellite and new energy are three high-tech areas which become the highlights of current China-Arab economic and trade cooperation. At the same time，China-Arab economic and trade cooperation is also faced with several challenges such as the lack of stability in the Arab States，the single bilateral trade structure and the lack of investment security，which need China and Arab States make full use of the China-Arab Cooperation Forum to promote the transformation and upgrading of China-Arab cooperation under “The Belt and Road Initiative”.
