2010-08-25

On August 25, 2010, Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi held talks with visiting Kyrgyz Minister of Foreign Affairs Ruslan Kazakbayev. Both sides exchanged in-depth views on China-Kyrgyzstan relations as well as international and regional issues of common concern and reached broad consensus.

People of China and Kyrgyzstan shared profound traditional friendship, said Yang. Both sides, based on good-neighborliness, mutual trust, equality and mutual benefit, had built up traditional friendship, deepened pragmatic cooperation in all areas and pushed bilateral ties for sound and stable development since the two countries established diplomatic ties 18 years ago, Yang said. Remarkable results had been achieved, he added. He said China attached great importance to developing ties with Kyrgyzstan and viewed it as a good neighbor, friend and partner. China was ready to work with Kyrgyzstan to enhance political mutual trust, expand personnel exchanges at all levels, push forward pragmatic cooperation and strengthen coordination within the multilateral frameworks of the United Nations and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) in a bid to push China-Kyrgyzstan good-neighborly friendship and cooperative relations to a new level, he said.

Kazakbayev said the Kyrgyz side valued the traditional friendship with China and would abide by all the bilateral treaties and legal documents already signed by both sides. Kyrgyzstan was committed to cementing and deepening bilateral good-neighborliness, friendship and mutually beneficial cooperation, he said, adding the country would firmly support China's positions on major issues concerning Taiwan and Tibet. He said Kyrgyzstan was willing to coordinate with China to crack down on the "three forces" of terrorism, separatism and extremism, to safeguard and promote regional peace, stability and development. Kazakbayev appreciated China's valuable support and selfless help for Kyrgyzstan, especially in April, when the situation in the country went through major changes.

After the meeting, the two foreign ministries signed a cooperative plan for the year 2011-2012.
