Chinese Premier Li Qiang recently met with a delegation from the Japanese Association for the Promotion of International Trade (JAPIT) in Beijing.
Chinese Premier Li Qiang held discussions with a delegation led by Yohei Kono, president of the Japanese Association for the Promotion of International Trade (JAPIT), in Beijing on Tuesday. The meeting focused on enhancing bilateral cooperation and managing the complex relationship between the two major Asian economies.
Premier Li stated that China is eager to work actively with all sectors in Japan to fully implement the political consensus that the two nations are "cooperative partners, not threats to each other." He expressed hope for more tangible results in practical cooperation, which he believes will help consolidate the foundation of political mutual trust and strengthen people-to-people friendship.
Highlighting the current state of bilateral ties, Li urged Japan to work with China to constructively manage differences and firmly steer the relationship in the correct direction, promoting healthy and steady development.
Li also pointed out the unique advantages China and Japan possess in deepening cooperation. He called on both sides to leverage these strengths to achieve greater mutual benefits and win-win outcomes, inject momentum into each other's development, and make more significant contributions to global economic growth.
Reaffirming China's commitment to opening up, Li stated that China will "firmly expand high-level opening up" and welcomes more foreign-funded enterprises, including those from Japan, to develop within its borders. He expressed hope that JAPIT would continue its active role in deepening economic and trade cooperation and enhancing friendship and mutual trust between the two countries.
In response, Yohei Kono affirmed that under the current international situation, Japan and China should enhance communication and coordination to jointly safeguard multilateralism and the free trade system. Kono reiterated JAPIT's long-standing commitment to Japan-China friendship and its willingness to continue expanding exchanges with China, aiming to enhance mutual understanding and make positive contributions to deepening ties between the two peoples and promoting mutually beneficial cooperation.
