Beijing: Chinese
Premier Li Keqiang Monday reaffirmed the country's support for the
just cause of the Palestinian people, reported Xinhua.
While meeting Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Beijing, Li
noted that this year marks the 25th anniversary of the
establishment of China-Palestine diplomatic relations, and
reviewed a profound friendship between the two countries.
Li said the new Chinese government has placed great importance on
consolidating China-Palestine relations and firmly supports the
just cause of the Palestinian people.
"China will continue its own way and make use of its influence to
boost Palestine-Israel peace negotiations, which will work for
regional and world peace and stability," he said.
On the economic front, the premier said China will deepen and
expand bilateral cooperation in all fields and offer substantial
support to the Palestinian people.
Li pledged China will carry out the existing projects, encourage
more Chinese businesses with strong capabilities to invest in
Palestine, help Palestine with infrastructure, train more people
and strengthen people-to-people exchanges.
Abbas reviewed the growth of Palestine-China relations and pledged
to expand mutually beneficial cooperation with China and welcome
more Chinese investment in Palestine.
He said Palestine expects China to continue its important role in
promoting the Middle East peace process.
Earlier Monday, Chinese President Xi Jinping held talks with Abbas
and made a four-point proposal for the settlement of the
Palestinian issue.
Abbas will conclude his China visit on Tuesday.
