Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held talks with Minister of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship of Argentina Diana Mondino on Tuesday in Beijing.

Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said that China is willing to take the opportunity of the 10th anniversary of the establishment of China-Argentina comprehensive strategic partnership this year, to jointly grasp the direction of bilateral relations, inject more certainty into the two sides' cooperation in various fields, and open up new prospects for the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.

The two sides should continue to cherish and consolidate political mutual trust, understand and support each other on issues concerning each other's core interests and major concerns, and advance cooperation, he said.

China is willing to work with Argentina and other Latin American and Caribbean countries to promote the building of China-Latin America relations in the new era featuring equality, mutual benefit, innovation and openness which will benefit the people, strengthen coordination and cooperation under multilateral frameworks such as the United Nations and G20, and safeguard the common interests of developing countries, Wang said.

The Zhuhai port of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge has handled over 10 million inbound and outbound passenger trips so far this year, up more than 120 percent compared to last year, according to the latest figures released on Tuesday.

The data marks a record high since the port's opening in 2018, as reported by the Zhuhai border inspection station of the bridge, which is the world's longest bridge-and-tunnel sea crossing.

During the period, the total number of Hong Kong and Macao passengers surpassed six million, up over 126 percent year on year and accounting for more than 60 percent of all passengers.

Since the beginning of this year, customs have registered more than one million vehicle crossings with single local license plates from China's two Special Administrative Regions (SARs) of Hong Kong and Macao.

Previously, only vehicles with special dual license plates were allowed to drive between Hong Kong or Macao and the mainland.

The 55-kilometer-long bridge links China's Hong Kong SAR, the city of Zhuhai in south China's Guangdong Province, and the Macao SAR, and has brought tremendous economic opportunities and benefits to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area since it opened to traffic in 2018.
