China has always treated its ties with Latin American and Caribbean countries from a strategic and long-term perspective, a senior Chinese official said Monday.

State Councilor Yang Jiechi told the third China-Latin America and the Caribbean Think Tanks Forum that China is ready to work with Latin American and Caribbean countries to achieve a new development in bilateral cooperation.

The China-Latin America relationship has entered a comprehensive and rapid development track, Yang said, noting that China's cooperation with Latin America and the Caribbean as a whole and cooperation between China and individual countries could reinforce each other.

Yang called on the forum to provide more intellectual input to China-Latin America ties.
