国内英语资讯:Interview: Parliamentary exchanges key foundation for Belarus-China partnership, says Belaru

MINSK, April 15 (Xinhua) -- Intensive and fruitful parliamentary exchanges formed one of the foundations for the comprehensive strategic partnership between Belarus and China, said top Belarusian legislator Mikhail Myasnikovich.

Myasnikovich, chairman of the Council of Belarus's National Assembly, or the parliament speaker, made the remarks in an exclusive interview with Xinhua prior to a visit to Belarus by Zhang Dejiang, chairman of the Standing Committee of China's National People's Congress.

"The parliamentary exchanges between Belarus and China were activated immediately after the establishment of diplomatic relations," Myasnikovich said, adding Belarus spoke highly of the results of earlier visits by the two countries' parliament leaders.

He stressed that it is very important to continue the constructive contacts between the two countries' parliament leaders, which also involve the practical cooperation in economy.

He said that Belarus thinks the exchanges between parliament leaders and the coordination of the two countries' law-makers in international organizations are significant for bilateral relations.

The parliament leader called for promoting the role of parliamentary exchanges in the two nations' promising cooperation.

During a state visit to China by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in September 2016,the two countries agreed to build mutual trust and win-win cooperation as part of the comprehensive strategic partnership. The bilateral relations have reached an uNPRecedented level since then.
