China's top legislator Li Zhanshu met with Thongloun Sisoulith, general secretary of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party Central Committee and Lao president, on Wednesday in Beijing.

 

Li, chairman of the National People's Congress (NPC) Standing Committee, said that China and Laos are friendly neighboring socialist countries and a community with a shared future of strategic significance. Under the strategic guidance of the top leaders of the two parties and countries, China-Laos relations have entered their best period in history.

 

The NPC will provide a legal guarantee for building China into a modern socialist country in all respects and is willing to work with the Lao National Assembly to implement the important consensus reached by the top leaders of the two parties and countries, deepen exchanges and cooperation, and contribute to pushing China-Laos ties to a new high, he added.
