Liu said, Algeria is an important partner of China in the Arab states and Africa. The two countries have supported each other in national liberation and development and become partners in common progress, which is a precious political asset of China-Algeria relations.

China firmly supports the just cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights, and is willing to continue to make unremitting efforts to promote an early, comprehensive, just, and lasting solution to the Palestinian question. 

Calling the MSP an important political force in Algeria, Liu said the CPC values its friendly relations with the MSP and is willing to work with all Algerian political parties, including the MSP, to plan exchanges between the political parties of the two countries, strengthen political dialogue and concept exchanges, promote practical cooperation between the two countries through the "political party +" channel, intensify personnel exchanges, including exchanges between the young politicians, and promote better development of respective countries.
