China welcomes Brazil to join BRI cooperation as early as possible

China welcomes Brazil to join the big family of cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) as early as possible, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a press briefing in Beijing on Thursday.

Mao made the remarks in response to a query regarding Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's recent statement on establishing new strategic partnership with China that involves cooperation in science, technology and the production of chips and software, and making the Brazil-China relationship "infinitely greater" and more prosperous.

"China and Brazil are major developing countries, important emerging economies and each other's comprehensive strategic partners. China attaches great importance to its relationship with Brazil and this relationship has always been a priority in China's diplomacy. China stands ready to take the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations as an opportunity to work for greater synergy between the BRI and Brazil's development strategies such as the New Industry Brazil and for high-level and high-quality practical cooperation across the board between the two countries, so as to better benefit the two peoples and contribute more to the development and prosperity of the world," said Mao.

"Brazil is the country of football. China welcomes Brazil to join the Belt and Road family as soon as possible and looks forward to Brazil's worldies in BRI cooperation," said Mao.
