Foreign Ministry Spokesperson’s Remarks on President Xi Jinping’s Special Representative Shen Yiqin Attending the Closing Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 and Visiting Serbia

2024-08-08 15:15

Q: The Foreign Ministry Spokesperson announced that State Councilor Shen Yiqin will attend the Closing Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 as President Xi Jinping’s Special Representative and visit Serbia. Can you share more information?

A: China attaches great importance to the development of sports, and actively participates in the international Olympic Movement. During President Xi Jinping’s visit to France in May this year, he expressed his support for France in hosting a successful Olympic Games in Paris. Vice President Han Zheng attended the Opening Ceremony and State Councilor Shen Yiqin will attend the Closing Ceremony, both as President Xi Jinping’s Special Representative. This fully demonstrates how much China values and supports the international Olympic cause and the work of France as the Games host. China applauds the success we’ve already seen in the hosting of the Paris 2024 Games and wish it a full success in the coming days.

China and Serbia are ironclad friends. Under the strategic guidance of the two presidents, China-Serbia relations have maintained robust growth. In May this year, President Xi Jinping paid a successful state visit to Serbia. The two presidents jointly announced that we will build a China-Serbia community with a shared future in the new era, opening up a new chapter for the history of bilateral relations. During State Councilor Shen Yiqin’s visit, she will have in-depth communication with Serbian leaders on delivering on the important common understandings between the two presidents, explore deeper practical cooperation and people-to-people and cultural exchanges between the two countries, and help bring China-Serbia relations to a new level.
