Visiting Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli met with Sudan's First Vice-President and Prime Minister Bakri Hassan Saleh here Friday, with both sides pledging to deepen pragmatic cooperation in various fields.
Zhang pointed out that the two sides should further enhance political mutual trust, and support each other on issues of core interest and major concern.
Both parties should deepen pragmatic cooperation, and consolidate and promote cooperation on oil, capacity and infrastructure, Zhang said. The two countries should also cooperate more in terms of people-to-people exchanges and culture, and strengthen cooperation in fields such as education, health care and tourism.
For his part, Saleh said that in 2015, the two heads of state decided to promote bilateral relations to the Sudan-China strategic partnership, an unprecedented high level. The Sudanese side thanks China for its unselfish support, and Sudan will always support China's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
He expressed willingness to work with the Chinese side to implement the consensus and agreements already reached, so as to better serve the Sudanese and Chinese people.
