CHINA stands ready to strengthen alignment of
development strategies with Vietnam, carrying out the plan of synergizing the
Belt and Road Initiative with Vietnam’s Two Corridors and One Economic Circle
strategy, said Chinese Premier Li Qiang here on Sunday.
China and Vietnam both are developing countries
standing at a critical stage in their modernization efforts, Li said when
holding talks with Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, adding China
firmly supports Vietnam in pursuing a path of socialism that suits its national
conditions.
Li reaffirmed China’s commitment to continuously
improving and upgrading cooperation across various sectors with the Southeast
Asian nation.
China is ready to deepen cooperation with Vietnam in
areas such as connectivity, trade, investment, tourism, healthcare, and
disaster prevention and mitigation, as well as expand collaboration in local
currency settlement and emerging industries, including the digital economy and
green development, Li said.
In August, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the
Communist Party of China Central Committee and Chinese president, held talks
with To Lam, general secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central
Committee and Vietnamese president, drawing a blueprint for and injecting fresh
vigour into the development of China-Vietnam relations, Li said.
China is willing to work with Vietnam to implement
the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two parties and two
countries, maintain high-level communication, and continuously build mutual
trust, Li said.
The Chinese premier also called on upholding the
original aspiration of good-neighbourliness and friendship, reinforcing
confidence in the two countries’ respective paths and systems, strengthening
solidarity and cooperation, expanding comprehensive strategic cooperation and
deepening the building of a China-Vietnam community with a shared future that
carries strategic significance. — Xinhua
