ATHENS, Nov. 11 -- Chinese President Xi Jinping and his Greek counterpart, Prokopis Pavlopoulos, agreed here on Monday to contribute the wisdom of ancient Eastern and Western civilizations to building a community with a shared future for mankind.

To that end, the two presidents agreed during their meeting to consolidate political mutual trust, deepen practical cooperation and promote dialogue among civilizations.

Xi stressed that he came to Greece with respect for civilizations and expectations for the future.

Xi said he resonates with the Greek president every time they converse, and that China resonates with Greece every time the two sides communicate.

"When drinking with a bosom friend, a thousand cups will still be too little," he said, quoting a Chinese proverb.

It is because, Xi said, as two countries with ancient civilizations, China and Greece share common or similar visions and have achieved national modernization and development through arduous struggles.

The world now has been going through profound changes unseen in a century, Xi said.

He called on the two countries to jointly deepen cooperation, promote dialogue among civilizations, advocate a more just and rational international order and let China and Greece, two countries with ancient civilizations, radiate with new glows in the new era.

The Chinese president put forward a four-pronged proposal.
