During a meeting with Kyrgyz President Almazbek Atambayev, Wang said bilateral relations have registered new and important development since the establishment of the two countries' strategic partnership by Chinese President Xi Jinping and Atambayev.

China is willing to take the joint construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road ("Belt and Road") as an opportunity to push forward the two countries' cooperation in production capacity, infrastructure, and people-to-people and cultural exchanges, he said.

He added that China is also ready to strengthen coordination and cooperation with Kyrgyzstan within the framework of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

For his part, Atambayev said China's long-term assistance has advanced Kyrgyzstan's social and economic development and enhanced the Central Asian nation's capability for self-development.

Describing China as a trustworthy and reliable friend, he said Kyrgyzstan is willing to actively take part in building the Silk Road Economic Belt, jointly combat with China the "three evil forces" of terrorism, separatism and extremism, and keep advancing the two countries' strategic partnership.

Kyrgyzstan will firmly stick to the one-China policy, Atambayev noted.
