On  May 20, 2022, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi elaborated on  China's position and views on developing China-Latin America and the  Caribbean (LAC) relations in phone conversations with Uruguayan Foreign  Minister Francisco Bustillo, Ecuadorian Foreign Minister Juan Carlos Holguin  and Nicaraguan Foreign Minister Denis Moncada.

Wang  Yi said that though far apart, China and the LAC countries share broad common  interests and have always supported and helped each other. China-LAC  cooperation is South-South cooperation featuring mutual benefit and win-win  results. China attaches great importance to the unique influence of Uruguay, Ecuador and Nicaragua in regional affairs and appreciates the positive contributions made by the three countries to the development of China-LAC  relations. China hopes to continue to deepen practical cooperation in various  fields and push China-LAC relations to a new level.

Wang  Yi said, we oppose some countries clinging to the Cold War mentality and  attempting to split the international community through ideological  confrontation. China cooperates with LAC on the basis of equality and mutual  benefit. China has no geopolitical considerations. China-LAC cooperation does  not seek to target or replace anyone, and should not be disturbed or  influenced by any third party.

Wang  Yi said, from the perspective of building a community with a shared future  for mankind, President Xi Jinping put forward the Global Development Initiative and the Global Security Initiative, and offered Chinese proposals for global  development and security, which have received a warm response from more than  100 countries, including those in the LAC region. Amid various global  challenges in the post-COVID era, China and the LAC should jointly uphold the  purposes and principles of the UN Charter and basic norms governing  international relations, and earnestly safeguard each other's sovereignty,  security and development interests. China is ready to strengthen coordination and cooperation with the LAC countries in international and multilateral  affairs, jointly hold high the banner of multilateralism, promote  international solidarity and cooperation, and inject more positive energy  into the complex and volatile international situation.
