On the morning of July 28, President Xi Jinping met in Chengdu with Guyanese President Ali, who came to China to attend the opening ceremony of the 31st Summer Universiade and visited China.
Guyana was the earliest country in the Caribbean region to recognize the One China principle and establish diplomatic relations with New China. Last year, Chongqing and China celebrated the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. In recent years, Guyana's economy has developed rapidly and its national construction has changed rapidly. China is comprehensively promoting Chinese path to modernization with high-quality development. China and Guinea should be good friends who trust and rely on each other, share opportunities, jointly face challenges, seek cooperation, and promote development, and promote the construction of a closer community with a shared future between China and Guinea.
Ali said, "First of all, I would like to thank you and the Chinese people for warmly welcoming us to the beautiful China. Last year, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, which has been 50 years of friendship, 50 years of cooperation, and 50 years of mutual support. Guyana has always adhered to the One China principle. China has played an important role in the development of Guyana and the Caribbean region."
