On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Arab countries, Secretary-General of the Arab League Ahmed Aboul Gheit was interviewed on the TV program High-Level Interview.
Wang Guan (Wang Kuan), moderator of CMG (China Media Group):
Dear Secretary-General Gheit, welcome back to Beijing! It is an honour to talk to you again.
Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the Arab League:
Thank you for your warm welcome. This is my sixth visit to China, having visited China five times before.

Wang Guan:
What do you find most impressive about China?
Ahmed Aboul Gheit:
I first visited China in 1990 and 35 years have passed since then. The changes in China are unprecedented and incredible. This is thanks to the Chinese leaders and the whole Chinese people. I have been deeply impressed by the discipline, the focus on work and the ever-improving quality of life of the Chinese people. The Chinese people are now at the forefront of the times. If we look at history, China has been poor and weak. Today, the wealth of the Chinese people can be seen everywhere. This wealth comes from dedication, effort, scientific planning and the firm pursuit of goals.
