A senior Chinese leader on Tuesday vowed to further the
all-round cooperation with South Korea, including the exchanges
between parties.
Li Changchun, a member of the Standing Committee of the
Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee met with Park
Geun-hye, former president of the Grand National Party (GNP) of
South Korea, agreeing on "deepening the comprehensive and
cooperative partnership."
The year of 2007 marks the 15th anniversary of the Sino-South
Korean diplomatic ties. China pledged to take the chance to enrich
the content of the bilateral cooperation and make new contribution
to peace, stability and development of northeast Asia and the world
as a whole, Li said.
Park Geun-hye said the 5000-year-long friendly exchanges between
South Korea and China had laid the foundation for the fruitful
cooperation between the two countries over the past decade.
She said the GNP had contributed to the establishment of South
Korea-China diplomatic ties, and it will keep on its contribution
on strengthening the friendly relations with the CPC in the new
era.
