By Xinhua in Astana | China Daily | Updated: 2014-12-17 07:45

China is willing to play a constructive role in Afghanistan's reconstruction, national reconciliation and the improvement of people's livelihoods, Premier Li Keqiang said on Monday.

Meeting with Afghan Chief Executive Abdullah Abdulla on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization prime ministers' meeting, the premier said China attaches great importance to the development of its relations with Afghanistan, supporting its push toward a reconciliation process dominated by the Afghan people.

To boost cooperation, China is ready to send a working group to Afghanistan to discuss the development plan for national infrastructure, Li said.

For his part, Abdulla said Afghanistan appreciates China's consistent contribution to peace and reconciliation in his country.

Afghanistan stands ready to consolidate ties, deepen beneficial cooperation and promote regional peace, stability and security, he added.

Li wrapped up his Kazakhstan trip late Monday after meeting with Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Kazakhstan is the first leg of Li's three-nation Eurasian tour, which will also take him to Serbia and Thailand.
