China and Cuba should work to make solid progress in exchanges at all levels and cooperation in all fields and ensure that high-level political mutual trust remains a hallmark of the relations between the two countries, Xi said.
The Chinese side also supports Cuba's efforts to promote economic and social development, said Xi, adding that the two sides, both as important members of the Global South, should enhance coordination and cooperation within such frameworks as BRICS and the China-CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States) Forum, oppose power politics and unilateral bullying, and safeguard international fairness and justice.
Diaz-Canel, for his part, said that Cuba and China are close friends and brothers, expressing gratitude to the Chinese side for its long-standing support for Cuba's economic and social development.
