Since the beginning of this year, China's optimization of its epidemic prevention and control policy has created favorable conditions for the comprehensive restoration of exchanges and collaboration between the two countries.

The two sides need to continue to fully and effectively implement the common perceptions reached by senior leaders of the two parties and countries as well as their signed agreements, he proposed.

The diplomat said it is necessary to strengthen political trust; expand and improve the effectiveness of cooperation across fields; promote people-to-people exchanges and tourism collaboration; and control and properly address disagreements on the basis of respecting each other's legitimate interests in accordance with international law, contributing to maintaining peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and deepening the nations’ comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership.
