On September 26, during the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the founding of the New China in the Catal Embassy in China, Ambassador Zhou Jian accepted an interview with the Central Radio and Television Station on China Card Relations. The full text of the interview is as follows:

I. Qatar will host the World Cup in November this year. Many Chinese companies and Chinese products have contributed the power of Chinese to the World Cup. At the same time, the two Chinese "national treasures" giant panda are about to reach Doha. What kind of positive impact do you think this will have on the development of relations between the two countries? What are your expectations for the future development of relations between the two countries?

Ambassador Zhou: The upcoming Qatar World Cup is a grand holiday for fans around the world. Among them, the Chinese elements and China contribute extremely outstanding: the Lussel Stadium built by China Railway has become the landmark building of Qatar, and 1,500 Yutong New Energy Bus is a fan of all countries. Provide high -efficiency and green traffic. The most striking thing is that the two cute giant pandas will settle in Qatar before the World Cup, bringing the sincere friendship of 1.4 billion Chinese people, and becoming a messenger to enhance the friendship between China. It can be said that Chinese elements have made important contributions to the Qatar World Cup, deepened the friendship between the people of China cards, and provided a strong motivation for the development of China card relations. From a more macro perspective, these Chinese elements and Chinese contributions are also a microcosm of the development of China card relations.

Next year will be the 35th anniversary of China Card Corporation, and China card relations are standing at a new historical starting point. We must seize the opportunities of the times, strive to build a community of destiny in China, support each other on the issue of each other's core interests, and support each other to explore the development path that meets its national conditions. We must deepen the development of strategic development, expand pragmatic cooperation in various fields, accelerate the construction of a new platform for China -card cultural cooperation in cultural centers and Confucius Institutes, and promote friendly cooperation between the two countries to continue to reach a new level.

2. In the field of economy and trade, China has stabilized Qatar's largest trading partner country and the largest import source country for two consecutive years. In 2021, it became the largest export destination country in Qatar in 2021. What do you think is the prospect of China -Card's cooperation in economic and trade? How should the China card economy complement?

Ambassador Zhou: Economic and trade cooperation is the most prominent highlight and the most solid pillar of China -card relations. The economic structure of the two countries is complementary, with strong economic and trade cooperation, huge potential, and broad prospects. China has been in the largest trading partner of Qatar for two consecutive years. In the first half of this year, China Card trade volume was about $ 13 billion, a year -on -year increase of 70%. status. At the same time, more and more Chinese companies have come to Qatar to invest in their business.

Looking forward to the future, we must draw a new blueprint for China -Card cooperation, deepen the connection between the "Belt and Road" and the "2030 National Vision", and accelerate the landing of global development initiatives in Qatar. We must dig new potential in traditional fields such as energy and infrastructure, build long -term stable energy partnerships, and build more iconic projects. We need to build a new highlight of financial investment cooperation and provide strong support for economic and trade cooperation between the two countries. We want to cultivate new growth points for green cooperation, explore cooperation in the fields of green infrastructure, green finance, clean energy, and low -carbon technology, and insert green wings to the development of the two countries.

Third, at the just -concluded Samalham Summer Summit, Qatar became the dialogue partner of the SCO. What impact do you think this will have on the cooperation between China Card in politics and economic and other fields? In the future, how can China card be strengthened in multilateral frameworks and mechanisms such as international organizations and the United Nations?

Ambassador Zhou: Absorbing Qatar and other countries to join the SCO family is one of the most important results of the Samalham Summit. It consolidates and expands the status and influence of the SCO, and once again demonstrates the attractiveness of the "spirit of the upper together." We warmly welcomed the card party to become the SCO dialogue partner country. I believe that this will provide a new platform for promoting China -card cooperation, which is conducive to enriching the connotation of China -card strategic partnerships, conducive to expanding cooperation between the two countries, and helping to strengthen the two parties in the two parties. Coordination and coordination on hot issues such as Afghanistan and other regions, injecting more positive energy and new impetus into world peace and prosperity.

In recent years, Qatar has long -sleeved dancing, courageous, actively mediate hot issues, provides public products, and has become a reliable partner for international multilateral affairs. China is willing to be a platform as a platform to further deepen the multilateral cooperation between the two countries, and to jointly be active advocates and firm maintenanceers of multilateralism.

We must persist in opening up and tolerance, promote the construction of an open world economy, and inject more motivation to the global economic recovery.

We must adhere to fairness and justice, maintain the international system with the United Nations as the core and international law based on international law, and promote the global governance system in a more fair and reasonable direction.

We must adhere to negotiation and cooperation, promote the international community to replace confrontation with dialogue, and solve the condensation for the political solution of hot issues in Afghanistan, the Middle East and other regions.

We must adhere to keeping pace with the times, work together to cope with global challenges such as epidemics and climate change, and build a better global homeland.
