SEOUL, Nov. 26 (Xinhua) -- China is ready to work together with South Korea to further expand all-round exchanges and cooperation and push the bilateral relations to a higher level, visiting Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said here on Thursday.

Wang, who arrived in South Korea on Wednesday for a visit, made the remarks at a meeting with former Prime Minister of South Korea Lee Hae-chan.

Wang expressed gratitude to the South Korean government and people for extending a helping hand when China was at the critical stage of combating COVID-19.

Both countries fought hand in hand against the epidemic and took the lead in establishing the "fast-track" entry for necessary personnel exchanges and in carrying out cooperation in the resumption of work and production, becoming a role model of international anti-epidemic cooperation, Wang said.

Facts have proved that China and South Korea are not only friendly neighbors, but also close cooperation partners, he added.
