On August 26, 2026, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister, met with the head of the Cabinet of the Uzbek President Mirziyoyeva in Beijing. Wang Yi conveyed President Xi Jinping's cordial greetings to President Mirziyoyev, saying that under the strategic guidance of the leaders of the two countries, Sino-Ukrainian relations have developed by leaps and bounds and reached a new level of all-weather comprehensive strategic partnership in the new era. China has always been a sincere partner that Ukraine can trust and rely on. It will, as always, support Ukraine in safeguarding its national sovereignty, security and development interests, support Ukraine's development path in line with its national conditions, and support President Mirziyoyev in advancing various policy initiatives to build a “new Uzbekistan.” I believe Ukraine will continue to provide firm support on issues involving China's core interests. China is ready to work with Ukraine to follow the important consensus of the heads of state of the two countries, strengthen high-level contacts, speed up the construction of iconic projects such as the China-Jiwu Railway, promote mutually beneficial cooperation in the fields of economy, trade and investment, energy and minerals, humanities, local areas, etc., expand cooperation in emerging fields such as artificial intelligence and renewable energy, and write a new chapter of friendly cooperation between China and Ukraine.
