As an important new trade export mode in the digital economy era,cross-border e-commerce exports inject new momentum into the trade cooperation of countries along"the Belt and Road".This paper uses the World Bank database and UNCTAD database from 2012 to 2021 to build multidimensional panel data,and analyzes and tests the impact of the development of digital e-conomy in countries along"the Belt and Road"on China's cross-border e-commerce exports from both direct and indirect influence channels.The research results show that in terms of direct im-pact,the development of digital economy in countries along"the Belt and Road"has promoted Chi-na's cross-border e-commerce exports,and its impact is heterogeneous.In terms of indirect im-pact,reducing trade costs is an intermediary channel to promote China's cross-border e-commerce exports,and the quality of institutions in countries along the route is a regulatory factor to promote China's cross-border e-commerce exports.Further discussion and analysis of spatial effects show that the development of digital economy in countries along the route has a spatial spillover effect on China's cross-border e-commerce exports.The research of this paper provides important inspira-tion for further promoting the development of digital economy in countries along"the Belt and Road"and promoting China's cross-border e-commerce exports.
