According to Lin Jian, spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the relationship between the two nations has been steadily advancing. Jian highlighted that the visit aims to deepen political trust, expand exchanges across various sectors, and enhance cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative. This initiative, which focuses on high-quality infrastructure and economic collaboration, is a key area where China and Poland are looking to lead and innovate together.
The visit also emphasizes the strategic partnership between China and Central and Eastern European countries, reflecting a broader regional approach to economic and political alliances. By fostering these ties, both nations hope to create a more integrated and cooperative global landscape.
On the ground in Poland, local sentiments about the visit are positive. Svetlana, a resident interviewed by CGTN, expressed optimism about the focus on bilateral trade. \"China is a vast country with a dynamic development momentum, so the visit to China is highly significant for Poland,\" she remarked.
