CHENGDU, July 28 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday met with Guyanese President Irfaan Ali in Chengdu, capital city of southwest China's Sichuan Province.
Ali is here to attend the opening ceremony of the 31st summer edition of the FISU World University Games and visit China.
Xi said that China and Guyana should be good friends who trust and count on each other, and both countries should share opportunities, meet challenges, seek cooperation and promote development together.
Xi urged the building of a more close-knit China-Guyana community with a shared future.
Guyana was the earliest country in the Caribbean region to recognize the one-China principle and establish diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China. Last year, the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Guyana was celebrated.
