In recent days, President Xi Jinping sent a message to Raimonds Vējonis to congratulate him on his election as the President of the Republic of Latvia.

Xi Jinping said in his congratulatory message that since the establishment of China-Latvia diplomatic relations 24 years ago, the two sides have increasingly enhanced political mutual trust, continuously deepened practical cooperation in all areas, and maintained sound communication and coordination in international and regional affairs. I attach great importance to the development of China-Latvia relations, and am willing to work with you to push forward exchanges and cooperation in all fields for more practical results so as to benefit the two countries and peoples.
