China and Cambodia on Thursday pledged closer cooperation as Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sok Chenda Sophea, who was in Beijing for the eighth Lancang-Mekong Cooperation (LMC) Foreign Ministers' Meeting.

In the face of complex changes in the international and regional situation, China and Cambodia should unswervingly follow the path of unity and win-win cooperation, said Wang, who is also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee.

Wang said China is ready to work with Cambodia and other countries to crack down on online gambling and transnational crimes, thoroughly eradicate relevant criminal gangs and safeguard social stability in regional countries.

Noting the infrastructure construction between Cambodia and China under the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has brought tangible benefits to the Cambodian people, Sok Chenda Sophea said the two sides should further strengthen cooperation to successfully refute the attacks and smears against the BRI by some forces outside the region.
