AMMAN, Dec. 15 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in Amman on Monday that China will remain Jordan's most reliable strategic partner during its development and rise.

Wang Yi, also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, made the announcement during a meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan.

During the meeting, the Jordanian monarch noted that he had visited China repeatedly since his youth and harbored deep feelings for the country. He also emphasized his cherished friendship with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

According to Abdullah II, Jordan attaches great importance to developing relations with China and hopes to further strengthen high-level interstate exchanges with China, promote practical cooperation, strengthen interaction and coordination in global and regional affairs, and jointly respond to the unstable situation in the world, especially the chaotic situation in the Middle East.

The King added that Jordan actively supports China's efforts to host the 2nd China-Arab States Summit next year and is ready to make every effort in the preparatory work to ensure that this summit becomes a new opportunity to deepen the strong Arab-Chinese relations.

Wang Yi, for his part, stated that under the strategic guidance of the two heads of state, Chinese-Jordanian relations are developing in a healthy and stable manner.

Recalling that this year marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the strategic partnership between the two countries, the Chinese Foreign Minister indicated that China is ready to strengthen communication and coordination with Jordan, implement the important consensus reached by the heads of state of the two countries, and chart a course for the development of the bilateral strategic partnership in the next decade.

Wang Yi invited the monarch to visit China to attend the 2nd China-Arab States Summit to work with the Chinese side to take Chinese-Arab cooperation to new heights.

The Chinese diplomat noted that under the leadership of King Abdullah II, Jordan, as a stabilizing force in the region, firmly adheres to principles, upholds justice, and plays a unique and positive role in promoting regional peace.

According to Wang Yi, China is a responsible major power that consistently adheres to the principle of equality of all countries regardless of their size, pursues a policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, supports all countries in choosing development paths that suit their national conditions, and never imposes its will on others.

China will always stand by the Global South, small and medium-sized countries, and firmly protect the common interests of developing countries, the Chinese Foreign Minister said.

The parties also held an in-depth exchange of views on the situation in the Middle East. –0–
