Senior Chinese and Polish military officials held talks here Wednesday afternoon on bolstering military ties.

China would work with Poland to promote in-depth development of bilateral military relations, said Chinese Defense Minister Liang Guanglie when having talks with visiting Polish Defense Minister Bogdan Klich.

China-Poland relations have developed smoothly since the two countries established diplomatic ties in 1949, said Liang, citing fruitful cooperation in various areas.

Liang said, with frequent high-level visits as well as productive military exchanges and cooperation, the relations of the two armed forces have deepened gradually.

Liang also introduced China's national defense policies and the progress of its military building and exchanged views with Klich on the security situation of the Asia-Pacific region and other issues of common concern.

Klich said, Poland speaks highly of China's rapid economic and social development and its increasingly important role in safeguarding the regional and world peace and stability.

He hoped that, through this visit, Poland and China could consolidate their traditional friendship as well as the sound relations of their armed forces and enhance military exchanges and cooperation in different fields.
