State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan on Wednesday met with visiting Slovakia Minister of Foreign Affairs Jan Kubis, predicting a rosy prospect of bilateral relations.
"The future of China-Slovakia relations will be bright," Tang said Wednesday afternoon in Beijing.
Kubis said the Slovakian government attached great importance to its relations with China.
Tang said he expected the two countries to maintain the political dialogue at various levels.
