Israel Vows to Cement Ties with China

(People's Daily-China) Zheng Qingting - Israel expects to boost its bilateral relations with China in a variety of fields, including high technology, clean technology, agriculture, trade and cultural exchanges, said Rafael Barak, director-general of the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs, during a visit to Beijing on May 30. "We created a department in Jerusalem that will be dealing only with China. We have here the Embassy and the Consulates General in Shanghai and Guangzhou. A third Israeli consulate will be established next year to mark the 20th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Barak added, "The relations between China and Israel have a long history, more than a thousand years. Both Israel and the Jewish people will always remember the last period of WWII when almost 30,000 Jews lived in Shanghai as refugees."
