El Salvador's president coming to visit China

At the invitation of President Xi Jinping, El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele will pay a state visit to China starting from Sunday. During the six-day visit, the two leaders will jointly attend a signing ceremony of cooperative documents. Premier Li Keqiang and top legislator Li Zhanshu will meet with Bukele. The trip will also bring Bukele to Shanghai. Foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said on Friday that bilateral exchanges and cooperation in various fields have been carried out and achieved results since China and El Salvador established diplomatic ties last year. "We believe President Bukele's visit will bring fruitful results and inject a strong driving force into the sustainable, sound and stable development of bilateral relations," Geng said.
