Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Tuesday that the China-Myanmar Economic Corridor is a flagship project of Belt and Road cooperation between the two countries.
Both sides should steadily advance the construction of key projects with safety ensured to help Myanmar develop its economy and improve people’s livelihoods, Xi said when holding talks with President of Myanmar Min Aung Hlaing in Beijing.
Xi also said China places ties with Myanmar as a priority in neighborhood diplomacy, and supports the new Myanmar government in coordinating development and security imperatives to find a correct path of development that suits its national conditions and wins popular support.
