Slovenian Prime Minister Robert Golob held talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Ljubljana on Saturday, reaffirming their commitment to deepening cooperation between the two nations. The meeting marked Wang's first visit to Slovenia since assuming his current role, underscoring Beijing's focus on Central European partnerships.
Golob emphasized Slovenia's long-standing positive relations with China, stating that continued collaboration 'serves the interests of both sides.' The discussions reportedly covered economic cooperation, green technology partnerships, and cultural exchanges. Wang reiterated China's appreciation for Slovenia's consistent friendly policy, noting that Beijing 'highly values bilateral relations' with the Alpine nation.
