China and RoK should take the 10th anniversary of the
establishment of their strategic cooperative partnership as an opportunity to
earnestly implement the consensus reached by and between the heads of state
of the two countries, Liu said.
Liu met with Moon after attending the February 25 closing
ceremony of the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics. She noted that the
attendance to the February 9 opening ceremony by Xi's special envoy Han
Zheng, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the
Communist Party of China Central Committee, and her presence at the closing
ceremony well reflect China's support for the PyeongChang games and the
importance China attaches to its relations with the RoK.
During the meeting with Moon, Liu said China and the RoK should
keep boosting mutual trust, launch mutually beneficial cooperation,
strengthen exchange in education, science and technology, culture, sports,
public health and other fields of humanities, and properly handle sensitive
issues, in order to consolidate the political basis and the basis of public
opinions for long-term stable development of relations between the two
countries.
On the Korean Peninsula issue, Liu recalled that the RoK and the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) took the PyeongChang Olympics as
an opportunity to restart dialogue and interaction, revealing the common
aspiration for peace of the people on the Korean Peninsula.
China is dedicated to peaceful solution of the Korean Peninsula
issue through dialogue and consultation, Liu said.
Liu expressed the hope that the RoK side will enhance
confidence, eliminate interferences, keep promoting continued improvement of
relations between two Koreas, and keep the current momentum of detente, in
striving to make progress in peace talks.
China will continue to play a positive and constructive role on
the issue, she added.
For his part, Moon thanked China for its special arrangement and
great support for the successful holding of the PyeongChang Olympics and
wished the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics a success.
Moon said that the RoK side wishes to strengthen exchange and
cooperation between the two countries in all fields, and expects China to
continue extending support and cooperation in terms of promoting the
south-north dialogue on the Korean Peninsula and the DPRK-U.S. dialogue.
