A press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that relations between Venezuela and China date back to June 28, 1974, but reached another level of cooperation during the government of Commander Hugo Chávez, with the creation of the High Level Mixed Commission as a mechanism for political dialogue and bilateral cooperation in strategic areas.
In this context, Caracas and Beijing have signed, over a period of almost two decades, different agreements on hydrocarbons, health, energy, industry, science, technology, and trade.
Foreign Minister Faría has emphasized that the ties between the two nations are not only concentrated in the area of industry, science, technology, and trade, but also in diplomacy and politics, the latter coinciding with the defense of the great causes of the multilateral system.
