Senior CPC official pledges further cooperation with Mongolia

BEIJING, Jan. 12 (Xinhua) -- Zhou Yongkang, a senior official of the Communist Party of China (CPC), vowed Thursday to enhance mutually beneficial cooperation with Mongolia to further bilateral ties.

Zhou, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, made the pledge during a meeting with Gombojab Zandanshatar, Mongolian minister of foreign affairs and trade.

Zhou, also secretary of the Committee of Political and Legislative Affairs of the CPC Central Committee, recalled his visit to Mongolia last August, saying he witnessed sound momentum of Sino-Mongolian cooperation.

He called on the two states to approach developing bilateral ties from a strategic perspective, enhance mutually beneficial cooperation in all fields, and enrich the strategic partnership.

He appealed for the two countries to expand exchange in education, culture and between the youth so as to consolidate friendship.

Zhou also suggested that the two states properly handle each other's concerns, strengthen law-enforcement cooperation, jointly fight against cross-border crimes and safeguard peace in the border region.

Zandanshatar said it's one of his country's priorities to develop relations with China. And he said that Mongolia would stick to the "one-China policy," and continue to regard Taiwan and Tibet as inalienable parts of Chinese territory.
