The President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, held a high-level meeting this Friday at the Miraflores Palace with a special delegation from the Government of the People’s Republic of China, headed by Mr. Qiu Xiaoqi.
“I am very happy to greet you. Thank you for the happiness. And to always thank President Xi Jinping for his brotherhood. As an older brother. And for his strong message as a leader to the world,” said the Venezuelan president, accompanied by Executive Vice President Delcy Rodríguez, after receiving the authorities, reports Prensa Presidencial.
This meeting ratifies the unbreakable character of the brotherhood between Caracas and Beijing, in a geopolitical context marked by resistance to unilateral coercive measures and the search for sovereign development for the peoples of the global south.
The visiting delegation, led by Qiu Xiaoqi, special representative for Latin American and Caribbean Affairs, is made up of key figures in Chinese diplomacy, including the ambassador to Venezuela, Lan Hu, and senior officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs such as Liu Bo and Wang Hao.
His Excellency Qiu Xiaoqi reiterated that China and Venezuela are foolproof strategic partners and emphasized that the Bolivarian Government represents an opportunity for the Asian giant.
The presence of this delegation underlines the importance that China attaches to its relationship with Venezuela, not only as a trade-energy partner, but as a fundamental political ally in the region.
Diplomatic relations, established in 1974 and elevated to a historic level by Eternal Commander Hugo Chávez and former President Jiang Zemin, constitute a pillar for regional peace and a model of mutual cooperation.
