China's top political advisor Wang Huning met with Speaker of the Nauru Parliament Marcus Stephen in Beijing on Tuesday.
Wang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), said the reestablishment of diplomatic ties between China and Nauru once again demonstrated the one-China principle is where global opinion trends and the arc of history bends.
The important consensus reached by Chinese President Xi Jinping and Nauruan President David Adeang in March has provided strategic guidance for deepening bilateral relations and practical cooperation, Wang noted.
China is ready to work with Nauru to deliver on the important consensus between the leaders of our two countries and continue to advance the relations between two sides, he said.
The CPPCC is ready to make positive contributions to this effort, Wang added.
For his part, Stephen reaffirmed Nauru's commitment to the one-China principle and expressed gratitude for China's assistance.
He also commended China's achievements in governance and development, and expressed Nauru's desire to strengthen exchanges, mutual learning, and friendly cooperation with China, as well as deepen friendship between the people of the two countries and promote the continued development of Nauru-China relations.
