Xiplomacy: China, Nauru gathering momentum for growth of ties


GROWING TOGETHER
Both developing countries, China and Nauru face the common tasks of growing the economy, improving people's wellbeing and realizing modernization.
China has won the hearts of the people of Nauru with its own deeds, Foreign Minister Aingimea said.
Recalling his visit to a waste-to-energy plant and an electric vehicle factory in China, he said what impressed him most was "how advanced it is."
"The technology blew my mind, absolutely amazing," he said, depicting China's path towards modernization as "fast and visionary."
The Belt and Road Initiative brings development opportunities to Pacific island nations, said Olsson, who is optimistic about future cooperation between the two nations, particularly on climate change, water supply and agriculture.
In his meeting with Adeang, Xi said China is ready to provide assistance to Nauru for its independent and sustainable development without political strings attached.
Friendship, old or new, will have a bright future as long as it is started. Cooperation, whatever its size, will be productive as long as it is sincere, Xi said.
