China successfully hosted the first Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation in 2017 and Portugal was also an important participant, Cai added.
The Sino-Portuguese cooperation under the BRI framework was built on a natural advantage, as Portugal is a maritime country and an important hub connecting the silk road on the land and in the sea, he said.
The Chinese ambassador also mentioned that Portugal is an important partner of China and is one of the founding members of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank initiated by China.
Cai added that Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa and Prime Minister Antonio Costa have stated that Portugal supports the BRI and is willing to expand pragmatic cooperation with China in various fields under the BRI framework.
The ambassador said China and Portugal could work together to further integrate the bilateral cooperation with their respective development strategies.
He also said that by celebrating the anniversary, China and Portugal will continue making efforts to guide the development of the bilateral relations from a strategic and long-term perspective, so as to promote the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Portugal.
Cai said China will continue to deepen reforms and expand opening-up in the future, as well as promote the BRI so as to better benefit the two peoples.
