China-CELAC cooperation to help build community with shared future
The forum, Castrillon said, has demonstrated the unity and diversity among its members, adding that he expects this mechanism to promote exchanges and dialogues among different civilizations in the future so that the two sides can share the fruits of cooperation and meet challenges together.
Mauricio Santoro, head of the Department of International Relations at the State University of Rio de Janeiro, said the forum has become the main dialogue platform between the two sides, and Chinese investment in Latin America has been increasing.
He stressed that the Belt and Road Initiative has benefited Latin America, which is far away from China, adding that the cooperation between Latin American countries and China is carried out on the basis of independence and equality, and the cooperation between Latin America and China is bound to usher in a brighter future.
