Chinese President Xi Jinping appreciated Cambodia’s firm support to China’s fight against the coronavirus epidemic, calling its Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen’s visit a demonstration of the close tie and mutual trust between the two countries.
Hun Sen’s visit comes at a critical moment when China is putting all-out efforts to contain the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). He arrived in Beijing on Wednesday afternoon and is expected to leave the country at night.
“A friend in need is a friend indeed,” Xi said, adding the great support from Hun Sen and the people of Cambodia well interprets the core meaning of the China-Cambodia community of shared future.
