With the two countries having established an innovative comprehensive partnership, Israel is willing to build on the momentum and enhance bilateral exchanges and cooperation in such fields as science and technology, agriculture, education, health care and culture, the Israeli president added.

At the JCIC meeting, Wang said the China-Israel innovation cooperation features similar concepts, complementary advantages, enormous potential and broad prospects, and has over recent years borne rich fruits in such fields as basic science, modern agriculture, health care and energy.

He urged the two sides to take stock of their past cooperation and chart the course for the future, calling for joint efforts to further expand exchanges, create a favorable environment and improve the JCIC mechanism.

Noting that both Israel and China are innovative nations, Netanyahu said the two sides should expand their innovation cooperation into new areas and carry out new projects.

Also at the JCIC meeting, relevant ministries on both sides reported the progress of bilateral cooperation in such fields as science and technology, trade, agriculture, health care and transportation, and laid out their plans and proposals on future collaboration.

The two leaders signed an action plan for bilateral innovation cooperation from 2018 to 2021 and witnessed the signing of seven other documents.

During the visit, Wang also attended the opening ceremony of an Israeli innovation summit in Jerusalem and the inauguration ceremony of an Israeli innovation center in Tel Aviv. He also talked with scientists from Weizmann Institute of Science, an Israeli research university.
