China appreciates Tajikistan's firm support in the past years on
issues concerning Taiwan, Tibet, Falungong and combating "East
Turkistan" terrorist forces, said State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan in
Beijing Wednesday.
Tang said when meeting with Tajikistan Deputy Prime Minister
Asadullo Gulomovich Gulomov that China will, as always, support
Tajikistan's efforts in safeguarding national independence,
sovereignty and stability and economic development.
Tang said President Hu Jintao and Tajikistan President Emomali
Rakhmonov met twice last year, and reached a series of important
consensus on promoting the development of bilateral relations.
"This injects new impetus into the mutually-beneficial
cooperation between China and Tajikistan in various fields," Tang
noted.
Gulomov said Tajikistan attaches great importance to relations
with China, and regards it as a priority in the country's
diplomatic work.
Tajikistan appreciates China's assistance over the past years
and will firmly adhere to the one-China policy and push for
cooperation with China in various fields.
Tajikistan is ready to enhance coordination with China in
international affairs, and make all efforts to cooperate with China
in hosting this year's summit of the Shanghai Cooperation
Organization.
