This meeting not only built a communication bridge for China and Turkey in the areas of environment and cultural exchange but also laid a solid foundation for future cooperation.

The warm atmosphere of the talks and the discussion on practical action plans filled both sides with anticipation for the future. My collaboration with the Beijing Turkish Cultural Center is expected to launch a series of cultural exchange and environmental cooperation projects between China and Turkey. Through the joint efforts of both parties, we will undoubtedly achieve fruitful results in these areas, contributing to the mutual understanding and friendship between the peoples of the two countries.
