Libya's political parties highly appreciate the great achievements made by the Chinese people under the leadership of the CPC in advancing Chinese modernization, and stand ready to learn from the CPC's advanced experience in strategic planning, state governance, and party governance and discipline, so as to jointly advance Libya-China relations.
