In January 2017, the first ministerial meeting of the forum of China and the Community of Latin America and Caribbean States was held in Beijing. Xi attended the meeting and made an important speech.
In 2016, China-Latin America relations have moved forward with the setup of new platforms such as the China-Latin America cultural exchange year and the forum of China-Latin America cooperation between local governments.
Official statistics show that the trade volume between China and Latin America rose more than twentyfold during the past decade to reach 236.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2017.
Currently, China is the second-largest trade partner and third-largest investment source country of Latin-America, while Latin America is China's seventh-largest trade partner.
Although bilateral trade has been affected by a sluggish global economy and the fall in commodity prices, both parties have been optimizing trade structure, diversifying areas for investment and transforming the model of economic and trade relations from one that used to be led only by trade to one driven by trade, investment and finance.
Now, China and Latin America are facing a new task of comprehensively upgrading their cooperation. Meanwhile, the development of bilateral ties has attracted much attention amid some changes in Latin America.
Against such backdrop, Xi's Latin America trip will deliver China's confidence in the stable development of the continent and send a signal of the bright prospects for bilateral cooperation.
