There were new breakthroughs in the economic and trade cooperation between Central Asian countries and Xinjiang in 2013，with Central Asian countries continued to be the focal point in Xinjiang’s external economic and trade cooperation. Bilateral trade volume was over $19 billion，accounting for 69% of Xinjiang’s total external trade. By analysing the state of cooperation in 2013，it is obvious that Central Asian countries remained the biggest trading partners for China’s Xinjiang area. Petty trade across borders accounted for about half of the overall bilateral trade，and private enterprises played important role in the trade activities. The pattern of bilateral trade was still featured by the fact that China mainly imported energy products and exported textiles and garments as well as mechanical and electrical products，and Xinjiang’s green industry began to demonstrate greater potential. Special policies were implemented to facilitate economic and trade cooperation between Xinjiang and Central Asian countries. Xinjiang was obviously successful in attracting foreign investment and carrying out economic cooperation with Central Asian countries，further efforts should be made to overcome existing major obstacles and bring Xinjiang’s foreign economic and trade cooperation to a new level.
