Speaker of the Assembly of People’s Representatives (ARP), Brahim Bouderbala, met a high-level delegation from the Chinese Communist Party at the Bardo Palace on Wednesday. The delegation was led by Qu Qingshan, member of the Central Committee and President of the Party’s Institute of History and Literature. Quoted in a parliamentary press release, the head of the Chinese delegation expressed the hope that bilateral cooperation would be strengthened, particularly at parliamentary level. He commended the historic ties between the two friendly countries and the fruitful cooperation based on mutual respect. The Chinese official underlined the important role played by Tunisia in China’s strategy for working on the African continent, adding that bilateral cooperation was clearly improving, particularly in the health, academic, cultural, commercial and economic fields. He said that the meeting between President Kaïs Saïed and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, which took place in December 2022 on the sidelines of the Sino-Arab summit, had given new impetus to bilateral relations. For his part, the Speaker of Parliament said that Tunisia appreciates the choices made by China, which have contributed to the country’s development in various fields. Bouderbala voiced the hope that cooperation between the two countries would develop in the political, economic and social fields. The meeting also provided an opportunity to discuss the specific features of the new political regime in Tunisia and to emphasise the shared desire to put in place a strategy for international cooperation based on mutual respect. The Chinese delegation is visiting Tunisia at the invitation of the Echab movement. The meeting took place in the presence of Li Wan, Chinese Ambassador to Tunis, Ezzedine Tayeb, Assessor to the ARP Speaker in charge of External Relations, Tunisians Abroad and Migration, and deputies from the Echab movement.
