Ayman Safadi extended warm congratulations on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the CPC, reiterated his country's staunch support for the one-China principle and expressed opposition against external forces' interference in China's internal affairs regarding Hong Kong. The Jordanian side expressed its admiration for China's success in containing the pandemic and praised China's contribution to the global fight against COVID-19.
