China pledges stronger exchanges with Sudan

Xinhua, January 28, 2015 Adjust font size:

China's top political advisor Yu Zhengsheng vowed to cement political trust and party-to-party exchanges with Sudan in Beijing on Wednesday.

Yu made the remarks while meeting with a delegation from Sudan's ruling National Congress Party (NCP) led by its deputy chairman Ibrahim Ghandour, who is also assistant to the Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir.

The two countries have always supported each other since the forging of diplomatic ties 56 years ago, despite changes in the international landscape, said Yu, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

The Communist Party of China and the Chinese government always treat ties with Sudan from a strategic height and a long-term perspective, he said.

China will adhere to a balanced approach of upholding justice and pursuing shared interests while developing ties with African countries, and stick to the policy of being true, practical, close and sincere to Africa , he said.

Yu vowed to cement political trust with Sudan, share governance experience and push forward substantial cooperation in various areas.

Calling China a sincere friend of Sudan, Ghandour said his country hopes to learn from China's development experience and deepen exchanges between both countries and ruling parties.

Ghandour is visiting China to attend the third high-level dialogue between the two ruling parties. Endi
