Sir Keir Starmer emphasized to President Xi Jinping that a strong relationship between the UK and China is vital for both nations and the international community.
Starmer stated, "We want our relations to be consistent, durable, respectful. We need to avoid surprises where possible and strengthen dialogue."
Critics within the Conservative Party charge that Starmer is straying from tougher stances on China, despite their party’s recent history of diplomatic engagement.
The Prime Minister underscored the importance of addressing contentious issues like human rights and Hong Kong while advocating for increased trade to bolster economic growth.
