LONDON, Dec. 7 -- The fifth annual UK-China High-Level People-to-People Dialogue concluded Thursday with both sides vowing to expand people-to-people and cultural exchanges to consolidate the social and civil foundation for the bilateral relations.
The dialogue, jointly chaired by Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong and British Secretary of State for Health Jeremy Hunt, is the highest-level bilateral dialogue held in Britain this year.
Liu and Hunt signed a joint declaration of the fifth annual UK-China High-Level People-to-People Dialogue, and witnessed the signing of 10 cooperative deals in various fields.
People-to-people exchanges between the two sides have yielded substantial results since the mechanism was launched 5 years ago, with 50 cooperative agreements and 72 projects being sealed in such fields as education, science and technology, culture, health, sports, youth, tourism, media and regional cooperation, Liu noted.
By incorporating social equity and women's rights, the mechanism this year has been expanded and enriched, said the vice premier.
This year marks the 45th anniversary of the establishment of China-Britain ties, said Liu, noting that a "Golden Era" in the bilateral relations has been ushered in by the leaders of the two countries.
Both sides should step up efforts to further improve the quality of the exchanges, and push the cooperation to a higher level to benefit a wider public in a move to contribute to the China-Britain ties, China-Europe ties and world peace and prosperity, said Liu.
