China will continue to enable high-standard opening-up, expand the fast track for people-to-people exchanges, and open new windows of connectivity, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Sunday.

Beijing has unilaterally implemented visa-free entry for 50 countries and established mutual visa-free agreements with 29 countries, Wang said at a press conference on the sidelines of the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress in Beijing.

Last year, as high as 73 percent of foreign nationals visited China without a visa, he added.

In the next step, China will continue to optimize policy regarding people-to-people exchanges to make it more convenient and comfortable for foreigners to travel and live in China, and make it safer and smoother for Chinese citizens to travel abroad, Wang said.
