Former Chinese Ambassador to Bolivia and Uruguay Wang Yongzhan
Wang Yongzhan,2000year to year2002Served as Chinese Ambassador to Bolivia ，2002year to year2006Served as China’s Ambassador to Uruguay in 2007 and is currently the Secretary-General of the Chinese Former Diplomats Association. He combined his experience of working in Latin America to comprehensively introduce the natural, social, cultural, economic, political conditions and customs of Latin America. This magical land is not only the "granary of the world" and the "meat storehouse of the world". It has contributed potatoes, peanuts, corn, tomatoes and other crops to mankind. It also has all kinds of mineral resources and created a splendid civilization. It has become a wonderful treasure house of human culture in the world. He particularly emphasized that Latin America's vast territory and abundant resources, especially its abundant oil, hydropower, iron ore and other energy and resources, are closely aligned with my country's economic development needs, so there is a lot of room for cooperative development.
As for the future development of China-Latin America relations, he said that there is no fundamental conflict of interest between China and Latin America. However, due to historical and geographical reasons, my country and Latin America do not yet understand each other well, and the upsurge of large-scale Chinese investment has not yet arrived. Before Vice President Xi Jinping's visit to Latin America not long ago, my country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced my country's policy towards Latin America in the form of a diplomatic document. He hoped that the Spanish students here could learn Spanish well and make efforts and contributions to various relations such as political relations, economic relations, w88 relations, investment relations, and cultural relations between China and Latin America after graduation.
Finally, two sophomore students from the Department of Spanish asked Ambassador Wang Yongzhan questions about the difficulties and bottlenecks in developing economic and w88 relations between Latin America, especially Bolivia, and China. He replied that the area is rich in oil and other minerals, but due to inconvenient transportation, there are great difficulties in development. We cannot be impatient and must proceed step by step. Students in the Department of Spanish should make their own contributions in this regard.
Wang Yongzhan took a group photo with the guests and staff
The lecture came to an end in a cordial and warm atmosphere. The staff of the w88 casino of Foreign Languages presented flowers to Ambassador Wang Yongzhan and took a group photo with him. It is reported that other activities of the Foreign Language Culture Festival are still in progress, so please stay tuned.
