AMMAN, June 23 (Xinhua) -- A Communist Party of China (CPC) senior leader has aired satisfaction over China-Jordan trade ties and called for stronger cooperation.
In a meeting late Monday with Jordan's Minister of Planning and International Cooperation Suheir Al-Ali, He Guoqiang, China's anti-graft chief, said Jordan was China's important cooperation partner in the Middle East.
"China attaches great importance to ties with Jordan and is satisfied with the continued growth of bilateral trade cooperation," said He, who is member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.
Jordan's trade with China hit about 360 million U.S. dollars in the first quarter this year, only next to Saudi Arabia and the United States, according to Jordan's official statistics.
The senior CPC leader said China would like to make joint efforts with Jordan to upgrade and widen bilateral cooperation in a substantive manner. (more)
