China is willing to work with Russia and to push for more pragmatic results beneficial to the two nations and the two peoples via advancing all-round cooperation with it.
The remarks were made by Liu Qibao, head of the Publicity Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), while meeting with Ivan Melnikov, vice chairman of the Communist Party of Russian Federation and State Duma's Deputy Speaker in Khabarovsk, a city in the far east of Russia.
"We are willing to step up exchange with the Communist Party of the Russian Federation and promote the cause of Sino-Russian friendship," said Liu, who is also a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.
Liu, who visited the Russian city from Sept. 23-27, attended a series of activities designed by both sides to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory in the World Anti-Fascist War, including an international seminar titled "70-Year Common Victory" co-organized by the CPC and the Communist Party of Russian Federation.
While saying Russia and China have laid a solid foundation of friendship through the battles the two peoples have fought together and the shared memories of the past, Liu believed the activities organized were of great significance for advancing cooperation between the Northeast of China and the Far East of Russia.
