Wang Yi introduced the eight-pronged consensus reached by the two sides. First, jointly cement the political foundation for China-Solomon Islands relations. Second, jointly advance the Belt and Road cooperation. Third, jointly implement the Global Development Initiative. Fourth, jointly create a secure and stable environment. Fifth, jointly promote connectivity. Sixth, jointly address climate change. Seventh, jointly promote sub-national exchanges. Eighth, jointly safeguard the interests of developing countries.

Wang Yi stressed, China-Solomon Islands relations started in keeping with the trend of the times, flourish in meeting the people's aspirations, and will certainly thrive with the progress of the times and usher in a broader and brighter future.
