People-to-people ties with UK boosted
China-United Kingdom "golden era" ties are set to gain momentum during the new era after 10 key agreements were signed at the fifth annual UK-China High-Level People to People Dialogue, which was co-chaired by Vice-Premier Liu Yandong and UK Secretary of State for Health Jeremy Hunt on Thursday.
The agreements signed during the meeting at Lancaster House in London cover connected sectors including people-to-people dialogue, education, regional cooperation, culture, tourism, and science and innovation.
"This year marks the 45th anniversary of the establishment of China-UK ambassadorial diplomatic relations," Liu said. "Under the strategic guideline of the leaders of the two countries, the China-UK relationship has entered a 'golden era' and made great progress."
