The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic highlighted that today Kyrgyz-Chinese relations are developing dynamically and are at an unprecedented high level in the entire history of bilateral interaction; there are no fundamental and controversial issues between Kyrgyzstan and China that impede the further development of our relations. The relationship of Kyrgyzstan with China can be confidently called exemplary and time-tested, which will only be strengthened on the basis of friendship, good-neighborliness and partnership. R.Kazakbaev drew attention to the fact that being the second largest world power that has managed to ensure its internal stability and economic development, as well as being a neighboring country, China will continue to occupy a special place in Kyrgyzstan's foreign policy priorities.
