China seeks more ties with Israel
Premier Li Keqiang yesterday underscored the country's commitment to seek stronger cooperation with Israel and boost the Middle East peace process.
Li made the comments in an hour-long talk with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
The premier said the new Chinese government placed great importance on developing ties with Israel, calling on the two countries to step up exchanges between governments, parliaments, parties and non-governmental organizations, and work more closely in education, tourism and other fields.
Li said the Palestinian issue was at the core of factors influencing peace and stability in the Middle East, stressing dialogue as the only effective way to finding peaceful solutions.
He said China expects Israel and Palestine to work together, take substantive measures to remove obstacles and create conditions for the restoration and progress of peace talks between Palestine and Israel, which is in the interests of Israel and Palestine and works for regional and world peace and stability.
As friends of both, China has always taken an objective and fair stance and would like to make joint efforts with all parties to promote the Middle East peace process, Li said.
On the economic front, he called on the two countries to expand two-way trade, and add value to it.
To deepen science and technology cooperation, Li proposed the two countries jointly build industrial zones and technology-transfer centers to make the best of their advantages. The premier welcomed more Israeli investment in China's cutting-edge technology fields.
Engineering projects
China would like to learn from Israel on cultivating agricultural products, improving husbandry and water conservation, he added.
Li said China was encouraging businesses with strong capabilities to participate in Israel's engineering projects.
At the start of the talks, Netanyahu said: "My main message in this visit is that Israel can be the perfect junior partner for China in its pursuit of economic excellence and competitive advantages by offering our technological capabilities."
He noted that Israel was a small country but with a great concentration of technological powers in many disciplines. "I think we can cooperate by scaling up these technologies for the benefit of both countries."
Netanyahu proposed the two countries work more closely in technology innovation, water conservation, agriculture, husbandry and recyclable energy.
Following their meeting, Li and Netanyahu presided over the signing of five agreements on aerospace, agricultural research, financial cooperation, science and technology, and Chinese language instruction. Details were not immediately provided.
"There is a perfect marriage between our mutual capabilities," Netanyahu said at a ceremony marking the signing of business agreements. "The Israeli government stands firmly behind cooperation between Israeli and Chinese companies, between Israeli research institutes and Chinese research institutes."
President Xi Jinping is scheduled to meet with Netanyahu today.
