China and Poland are expected to upgrade their strategic partnership to a "comprehensive level" on Monday during President Xi Jinping's visit in this fast-developing country, according to a senior Chinese diplomat.

And the scaling-up of the bilateral relationship, five years after establishing Sino-Polish strategic partnership in 2011, will be happening after Poland adjusted its foreign policy in recent years by engaging all global players, instead of mainly the West.

"Our bilateral relationship had made tremendous solid progress in all fronts in previous years and we will recognize such harvests during President Xi's visit," said Xu Jian, Chinese Ambassador to Poland during an exclusive interview with China Daily on Friday.

Xu, also having worked as ambassador in Romania, said the burgeoning development of partnership between China and Central and Eastern Europe is also the reason behind the "re-positioning" of the China-Poland relationship during Xi's visit. Xi arrives in Poland on Sunday after his three-day state visit in the Republic of Serbia, at the crossroads between Central and Southeast Europe.

Xu said both sides are expected to sign dozens of documents on Monday to boost cooperation at political, economic, trade, high-tech and people-to-people fronts.
