"As a member of the Chinese Arctic expedition team, I am proud of our country's achievements in polar research," said Hu Zhengyi, head of the Yellow River Station.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Norway. After 70 years of development, China-Norway relations have become more mature and resilient, and have maintained a strong endogenous momentum, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said when he held talks with Norwegian counterpart Espen Barth Eide in Beijing in February.

Chinese researchers have also conducted many studies on polar scientific exploration and environmental protection in line with international and sustainable development efforts to tackle climate change, including China-Nordic cooperation.
