The Arab League (AL) Secretary General Amr Moussa's spokesman Alaa Roushdi Wednesday said the Arab foreign ministerial meeting, held on Sept. 5, adopted a resolution and reiterated its adherence to the one-China policy.
Roushdi told Xinhua that the resolution reaffirmed that the Arab countries stick to the one-China policy and attach great importance to strengthening relations with China in various fields.
The resolution also welcomes the Amman Declaration, released by the second Sino-Arab cooperation Forum businessmen conference held in Jordan in June, and the proposals from the fourth Sino-Arab Cooperation Forum senior official meeting held in the Cairo-based AL headquarters.
The resolution asks the AL secretariat to make coordination between the Arab and the Chinese sides to prepare for the seminar on Arab-China relations and Arab-China civilizations slated for Dec. 1-3 in Saudi Arabia, as well as the Arab-China press cooperation forum to be held in China this year.
It welcomes the suggestion that China hosts the first Arab- China energy cooperation conference, while Sudan hosts the second one.
The resolution also supports the suggestion that Bahrain hosts the third Sino-Arab Cooperation Forum at the foreign minister level on May 21-22, 2008, and Tunis hosts the seminar on Arab- China relations and Arab-China civilizations in 2008.
