At the invitation of Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong will visit China from December 20 to 21, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning announced on Monday.
December 21 will mark the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between China and Australia, Mao said, adding that Wang will hold talks and a new round of China-Australia diplomatic and strategic dialogue with Wong during her visit.
"We hope that Foreign Minister Penny Wong's visit will help both sides to further follow up on the important common understandings reached between our leaders at their meeting in Bali," Mao said.
Taking the 50th anniversary as an opportunity, Mao said China hopes both sides will reaffirm their commitment to the principle of mutual respect, mutual benefit and seeking common ground while shelving differences, step up dialogue, expand cooperation, manage differences and bring the bilateral relationship back on the right track and realize its sustainable development.
