In a remarkable display of international camaraderie, China presented a unique gift to Arab nations during the 10th ministerial conference of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum in Beijing on Thursday.
The gesture involved the presentation of flags from various Arab countries and the League of Arab States. These flags had been sent to the orbiting China Space Station in October 2023 and were safely returned, symbolizing a bond that transcends both time and space.
China Media Group described the gift as \"a permanent symbol of China-Arab friendship transcending time and space,\" highlighting the enduring nature of the relationship between China and Arab states.
This innovative approach to diplomacy underscores China's commitment to strengthening ties with its Arab partners through unique and meaningful gestures.
