From April 26 to 28, 2024, Vice Foreign Minister Sun Weidong visited Tajikistan upon invitation, during which he met with Tajik Foreign Minister Sirojiddin Muhriddin in Dushanbe and held consultations between the two foreign ministries with Deputy Foreign Minister Farhod Salim.

Sun Weidong said that under the strategic guidance and personal promotion of President Xi Jinping and President Emomali Rahmon, China-Tajikistan relations have achieved leapfrog development. In May last year, the two heads of state announced the building of a China-Tajikistan community with a shared future, leading China-Tajikistan relations into a new era. China and Tajikistan have always firmly supported each other on issues concerning their core interests, have steadily pushed forward major cooperation projects in such fields as economy and trade, security, connectivity, people-to-people and cultural exchanges, and have become close partners in achieving their own economic and social development as well as national revitalization. China is ready to work together with Tajikistan to continue to follow the guidance of the two heads of state to accelerate the advancement of all-round mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries and jointly build a China-Tajikistan community with a shared future.

The Tajik side stated that the head-of-state diplomacy has led Tajikistan-China relations to achieve a high level of comprehensive strategic partnership, with the two sides advancing cooperation in various fields on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual trust, and continuously achieving new results in the Belt and Road cooperation. The Tajik side firmly pursues the one-China principle, and stands ready to strengthen communication and coordination with the Chinese side in international and regional affairs, and safeguard common interests. The Tajik side will continue to follow the head-of-state diplomacy to continuously promote cooperation with the Chinese side for the benefit of the two peoples.

The two sides also had an exchange of views on cooperation within the framework of multilateral mechanisms such as the China-Central Asia mechanism, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and the United Nations, as well as on international and regional issues of mutual interest and concern.
