Spring, books and fun in the air

China' s Ambassador to Morocco Li Li says publishing has become an important part of Sino-Arab collaboration. Warm relationships between the publishers have increased people's confidence in future collaboration, exchanges and understanding between China and Arab countries.

Zhao Haiyun, an official of the National Administration of Press and Publication, says China will support and encourage more collaboration in forms including the publishing alliance with publishers from the countries related to the Belt and Road Initiative this year and will support Chinese publishers and the Guest of Honor events in international book fairs, as with the Teheran International Book Fair in April.
