BERLIN, July 6 -- Chinese President Xi Jinping said here Thursday that China would like to join South Korea in returning bilateral ties to the track of healthy development.
He made the remarks while meeting with his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in ahead of a G20 summit to be held in the northern German port city of Hamburg.
Xi said China and South Korea, two geographically close nations, share interconnected cultures and notable complementary advantages, adding over the past 25 years since the establishment of diplomatic ties the two sides have realized a leapfrog development in their relations, which has benefited the two peoples greatly and contributed to regional peace, stability and prosperity.
He noted South Korea's positive willingness to improve bilateral ties by dispatching a delegation to attend the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation in Beijing this May, and sending an envoy to China to deliver a letter hand-written by President Moon, adding that he appreciated these moves.
"For a period of time, China-South Korea relationship has been facing difficulties, and we do not want to see that," he said.
Xi suggested that both sides revisit the experience and lessons accumulated over the years since the two countries forged their diplomatic relationship in 1992, and join hands to return bilateral ties back to the track of healthy development, saying it is a shared responsibility for both to preserve and develop their relationship.
