A Chinese delegation introducing the achievements of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) wrapped up its tour in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Tuesday.
The delegation, led by Hu Changsheng, an alternate member of the CPC Central Committee, held briefing sessions with UAE government officials, business people, and representatives from major media and think tanks to introduce the spirit and significance of the CPC party congress.
The 19th CPC National Congress, whose central committee re-elected Chinese President Xi Jinping as general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, was held in October and drew a blueprint for China's development over the next 30-plus years.
Hu also met with senior officials including Reem Al-Hashimy, the UAE minister of state for international cooperation, to introduce Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and innovative practices of Xi during his earlier years of work in southeast China's Fujian Province.
The UAE side hailed China's historical achievements under the leadership of Xi, and appraised the significance of the party congress, saying the UAE stands ready to promote development of bilateral relations.
