Wang Junzheng, on behalf of the Party Committee and the government of the autonomous region, welcomed Schleista and his delegation. He said that China and Nepal are connected by mountains and rivers, people to people and cultural exchanges and generations of friendship. In recent years, high-level exchanges between the two countries have been close, practical cooperation in various fields has continued to deepen, and China Nepal relations have always maintained healthy and stable development. In 2019, President Xi Jinping paid a historic state visit to Nepal, pushing bilateral relations to a higher level. Last September, Premier Prachanda paid an official visit to China, and the leaders of the two countries reached important consensus on developing China Nepal relations, injecting new and strong impetus into the development of bilateral relations. The Tibet Autonomous Region is willing to work with Nepal to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, deepen practical cooperation, promote the high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road" to bear fruit again, and constantly promote the strategic cooperative partnership of China and Nepal for development and prosperity.
Wang Junzheng said that Tibet and Nepal have a long history of exchanges and exchanges. Last year, I led a delegation from the Tibet Autonomous Region to visit Nepal to exchange in-depth views on promoting practical cooperation between the two sides in various fields. Tibet will fully implement Xi Jinping's diplomatic thinking, conscientiously implement the Party Central Committee's foreign policies, give play to its regional, geographical and cultural advantages, closely combine the development and opening up of Tibet with the promotion of the prosperity and development of China Nepal relations, constantly increase friendly exchanges and mutually beneficial cooperation with Nepal, and contribute to deepening China Nepal traditional friendship and bilateral relations. Closer economic and trade exchanges, strengthen infrastructure connectivity, accelerate the construction of border trade markets, and promote the sustainable and healthy development of China Nepal trade; Implement more "small and beautiful, benefit people's livelihood" aid projects in Nigeria; We should increase people to people and cultural exchanges, deepen sister city cooperation, strengthen tourism cooperation with Nigeria, promote cultural and tourism resources, vigorously promote people to people connections, and make positive contributions to the development of China Nepal relations. It is hoped that the delegation led by Vice Premier Schleista will take a more extensive walk in Tibet and introduce a more beautiful, prosperous and open Tibet to the Nepalese people and the international community in a comprehensive, objective and true way, so that the world can better understand Tibet and let Tibet go to the world faster.
Schleista affectionately reviewed the long history of non-governmental ties, cultural exchanges and civilized exchanges between Nigeria and China, highly appreciated the great achievements made in the economic and social development of Tibet, China, and fully affirmed the achievements and broad prospects of bilateral cooperation. He said that Nigeria and China are traditionally friendly and interdependent, and always respect and support each other. Nigeria firmly adheres to the one China principle, attaches great importance to developing friendly cooperative relations with China, and attaches importance to exchanges and exchanges with various regions of China. Tibet is an important gateway for exchanges between China and South Asian countries. Nepal cherishes the friendly relations with the Tibet Autonomous Region and is willing to actively participate in the construction of the "Belt and Road", further strengthen exchanges and exchanges with Tibet, promote mutually beneficial cooperation in trade, investment, agriculture, tourism, port construction and other fields, and promote common development.
