Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Thursday called for efforts to achieve more outcomes in building a China-Uzbekistan community with a shared future during his meeting with Prime Minister of the Republic of Uzbekistan Abdulla Aripov in Beijing.
Li noted that China and Uzbekistan have maintained close high-level exchanges in recent years with practical progress in bilateral relations.
China is willing to work with Uzbekistan to follow the strategic guidance of the presidents of the two countries, consolidate political mutual trust, firmly support each other, said Li, urging mutually beneficial cooperation in fields such as trade and investment, energy resources, connectivity, and people-to-people exchanges.
In the face of a complicated international landscape, both sides should enhance multilateral collaboration, actively implement the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative and the Global Governance Initiative, and promote the international order towards a more just and reasonable direction, Li said.
Aripov said Uzbekistan firmly supports the one-China principle.
Uzbekistan is willing to enhance high-level exchanges with China, actively participate in Belt and Road cooperation, enhance the level of cooperation in economy and trade and people-to-people exchanges, and strengthen multilateral coordination and collaboration, so as to promote greater development of Uzbekistan-China relations.
