China would like to take the opportunity to establish the China-Bolivia strategic partnership, deepen cooperation in all areas and push the bilateral relationship to a new level, Xi added.

Xi stressed that China and Bolivia should be good partners with mutual political trust, firmly support each other on issues related to their core interests and major concerns and enhance communication of all levels.

Both China and Bolivia are ancient civilizations, and the two nations should learn from each other and seek solutions using the wisdom of their ancestors to resolve current problems, Xi said.

Xi called on the two countries to be strategic partners of multilateral cooperation and continue to coordinate their stance on major international issues including sustainable development and climate change.

The two sides should join hands to safeguard the interests of developing countries, jointly build a new type of international relations with the characteristics of mutual respect, fairness and win-win cooperation, and work together to build a community of a shared future for mankind, Xi said.

China has been pushing cooperation with Latin American countries, and the Belt and Road has provided a new platform for China-Latin America cooperation, Xi added.
