Xinhua, June 30, 2015 Adjust font size:

Georgia attaches great importance to deepening relations with China, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili said Monday in talks with Huang Wei, visiting vice chairman of China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

The Georgian government has always considered China as an important partner and attaches great importance to promoting bilateral cooperation, Garibashvili said.

The two also discussed the Silk Road Economic Belt initiative as well as trade and economic cooperation.
