President Xi visited Central and Eastern Europe twice in the year, and Premier Li attended the Riga summit of China and Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC). These well-coordinated diplomatic efforts have helped to build momentum and lay out a new blueprint for China-CEEC cooperation. China successfully hosted the 18th China-EU summit, and new progress was made in exchange and cooperation mechanisms with France and Germany. The new British Prime Minister Theresa May expressed Britain's renewed commitment toward building a "golden era" for UK-China relations. We have reason to believe that China-UK cooperation will continue to move forward and bring pleasant surprise with its progress.

The Central Conference on Work Relating to Foreign Affairs has proposed to build a network of partnership across the world. With developing countries as the priority, we have worked to build partnerships of various types which have distinctive features and are mutually reinforcing. An initial global network of partnerships has thus taken shape and is being further strengthened. This year, we have set up new partnership relations with seven countries, and elevated existing partnerships with 11 countries, a big majority of which being developing countries.
