On the morning of September 23rd, President Xi Jinping met with East Timor Prime Minister Xanana at the West Lake State Guesthouse in Hangzhou to attend the opening ceremony of the 19th Asian Games in China. The leaders of the two countries jointly announced the upgrading of China East Timor relations to a comprehensive strategic partnership.

President Xi Jinping pointed out that the friendship between China and East Timor has a long history. China was the earliest to recognize East Timor's independence and establish diplomatic relations with East Timor. Over the past 20 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, the relationship between the two countries has undergone the test of international changes, with a stronger political foundation and continuously enriched and expanded connotations. Upgrading the relationship between the two countries into a comprehensive strategic partnership is a practical need for the cooperation between the two countries to keep up with the times and a common expectation of the two peoples. China is willing to continue to follow the concept of amity, sincerity, and mutual benefit, and work together with East Timor on the modernization journey to better benefit the people of both countries.

President Xi Jinping emphasized that unwavering support for each other's core interests and major concerns is an important political foundation for the continuous upgrading of China East Timor relations. Both sides should continue to carry forward their fine traditions, increase mutual support, strengthen international cooperation, and safeguard the common interests of the two countries and developing countries. The two sides should continue to promote the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" and deepen cooperation in the four key areas of industrial revitalization, infrastructure construction, food independence, and people's livelihood improvement. China supports East Timor's better integration into the regional development pattern and is willing to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with East Timor on platforms such as the China Portuguese speaking Countries Economic and Trade Cooperation Forum, and work together to build a community with a shared future for mankind.

Prime Minister Xanana stated that I still have fresh memories of the President's internship during the 2014 visit to China and am pleased that bilateral relations have continuously achieved positive results in recent years. In the process of East Timor's striving for national independence, the Chinese people have always given valuable support. In the process of East Timor's fighting against the COVID-19, the Chinese government has provided timely and powerful help, which is remembered by the East Timorese people. Thank you to the Chinese medical ship for providing timely assistance to the people of East Timor. President Xi Jinping's initiative of jointly building the "the Belt and Road" has responded to the needs of countries for infrastructure construction. Timor Leste firmly supports and will actively participate. East Timor firmly adheres to the One China policy and supports important conceptual and policy initiatives such as the Global Development Initiative, Global Security Initiative, and Global Civilization Initiative proposed by President Xi Jinping. We welcome Chinese enterprises to invest in East Timor and assist in its national construction. We hope to strengthen cooperation with China in infrastructure, food security, resource development, healthcare, and other fields, and promote bilateral relations to a new level of comprehensive strategic partnership.

The two sides issued a joint statement on the establishment of a comprehensive strategic partnership between the People's Republic of China and the Democratic Republic of East Timor.

President Xi Jinping pointed out that this year marks the 65th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Cambodia and the Year of Friendship between China and Cambodia. My two meetings with King Sihamoni have demonstrated the deep friendship between China and Cambodia as one family.

The Chinese side cherishes the special friendship with the Cambodian royal family and attaches great importance to the development of China Cambodia relations. It is willing to work with Cambodia to promote the construction of a community with a shared future between China and Cambodia to go deeper and deeper.

President Xi Jinping emphasized that this year marks the 10th anniversary of my proposal of the concept of amity, sincerity, and mutual benefit. The relationship between China and Cambodia embodies this concept and China's adherence to the neighboring diplomatic policy of being good and partner with its neighbors. China supports Cambodia in pursuing a development path that is in line with its national conditions, achieving stability and development, and playing an important role in the international and regional stage. Both sides should maintain high-level exchanges, deepen mutually beneficial cooperation, solidly promote the "Diamond Six Sides" cooperation framework, and promote the construction of the "Industrial Development Corridor" and "Fish and Rice Corridor" to achieve visible results as soon as possible, serving the modernization cause of their respective countries. Both sides should continue to promote exchanges and cooperation in fields such as education, culture, and youth, so as to deepen the friendship between China and Cambodia.

Sihamoni expressed that it is a great honor for me to lead a delegation to attend the opening ceremony of the 19th Asian Games in beautiful Hangzhou. China has successfully hosted the Asian Games twice, and I firmly believe that under the strong leadership of President Xi Jinping, China will once again present an exciting and unparalleled sports event to the world, making new contributions to promoting the unity and friendship of the Asian family. The Cambodian people will always remember the brotherly friendship established between Emperor Sihanouk and Chinese leaders, cherish the iron friendship established between Cambodia and China, and fully agree with President Xi Jinping's concept of friendly, sincere, and inclusive diplomacy with neighboring countries. Cambodia firmly adheres to the one China policy and is willing to work with China to jointly build the "the Belt and Road" and build a community of shared future between Cambodia and China. May the friendship between Cambodia and China last forever!

China Nepal cooperation in jointly building the "the Belt and Road" has constantly yielded positive results, and the three-dimensional interconnection network across the Himalayas has begun to take shape. Both sides should focus on promoting infrastructure connectivity, expanding transit transportation cooperation, and helping Nepal transform from a "land-locked country" to a "land-locked country" as soon as possible.

Under the leadership of President Xi Jinping, China has achieved remarkable development achievements and is bound to achieve greater success on the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Nepal and China are friends and partners who understand, rely on, and support each other. The Nepalese side sincerely thanks the Chinese side for providing selfless assistance to the Nepalese economy, poverty alleviation, and epidemic prevention. The Nepalese side firmly adheres to the One China policy, and Taiwan and Tibet are inseparable parts of China's territory. The Nepalese side will not allow any force to use Nepalese territory to engage in actions that undermine China's sovereignty and security. This stance is unwavering and unshakable. The Nigerian side highly appreciates and will actively participate in the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" and promote the construction of cross Himalayan three-dimensional connectivity network. It is believed that this will greatly help Nigeria's economic development. Nepal supports a series of important conceptual initiatives proposed by President Xi Jinping, and is willing to work with China to promote the development of the international order towards a more just and reasonable direction, safeguard the common interests of developing countries, and promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind.
