ANKARA (AA) — China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) on Thursday agreed to further advance the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the sides.

The agreement came during 27th ASEAN-China Summit, on the sidelines of an ongoing summit of the bloc in Laos' capital Vientiane, attended by Chinese Premier Li Qiang and regional leaders.

"(During the meeting) the Leaders reviewed the progress of ASEAN-China cooperation and discussed its future direction, particularly on advancing the ASEAN-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership," said a short statement by ASEAN, posted on X.

The sides also discussed how to deepen cooperation in people-to-people exchanges.
