国家主席习近平周三在北京人民大会堂与厄瓜多尔总统莱宁·莫雷诺举行会谈，双方呼吁发展健康稳定的双边关系。
 

 

Recalling his state visit to the South American country in 2016, Xi said the healthy and steady development of China-Ecuador ties goes with not only the fundamental interests of the two countries and peoples but also the trend of peace, development and win-win cooperation.

 

During the 2016 visit, the two countries established a comprehensive strategic partnership², ushering³ in a new chapter for the bilateral relationship, Xi said.

 

Xi said he appreciates President Moreno's commitment to deepening the friendly cooperation between the two countries since Moreno took office last year.

 

Xi stressed that the two sides should increase interactions to intensify⁴ their strategic communication and coordination⁵ and exchange experience on governance, so as to enhance mutual⁶ understanding and support for each other's path of development and continue backing each other firmly on issues involving their core interests and major concerns.

 

Noting that Ecuador's participation⁷ in the construction of the Belt and Road is welcomed by the Chinese side, Xi expects the two sides to jointly⁸ promote cooperation in areas such as infrastructure⁹, production capacity, agriculture, information technology, new energy and environmental protection.

 

"China welcomes Ecuador to actively¹⁰ explore the Chinese market and share opportunities brought by China's development," Xi said.
