Chinese premier Li Qiang will lead a Party and government delegation to the DPRK from October 9 to 11 to attend the 80th anniversary celebrations of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK), a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry announced on Tuesday.
This 80-year milestone highlights the enduring role of the WPK in shaping the DPRK's political landscape. The visit underscores the close diplomatic ties between the two neighbors and sets the stage for discussions on bilateral cooperation in areas such as trade, culture, and regional stability.
Past high-level exchanges have been a cornerstone of China-DPRK relations. Li Qiang's trip comes amid a renewed push for multilateral diplomacy in Northeast Asia, and observers believe it could pave the way for deeper economic links and cultural exchanges between Beijing and Pyongyang.
From October 9 to 11, the world will watch as the two delegations commemorate this landmark anniversary, reinforcing a shared history and looking ahead to future collaboration.
