The strong fraternal relations between the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) of Nicaragua were underlined in a January 13 meeting in Beijing between Liu Jianchao, Minister of the International Department of the CPC Central Committee (IDCPC), and a delegation led by Fidel Antonio Moreno Briones, Secretary General of the Managua Mayor’s Office and Organisation Secretary of the FSLN.
Liu said, under the strategic guidance and personal promotion of President Xi Jinping and President Daniel Ortega, China and Nicaragua have seen strong development in bilateral relations, and officially established a strategic partnership in 2023, continuously releasing the dividends of the resumption of diplomatic relations. He said, despite different scales, the CPC and the FSLN have always treated each other as equals and respected each other. The two parties have similar experiences and shared concepts in fighting against imperialism, colonialism and hegemony.
Moreno said, since the resumption of diplomatic relations between the two countries fruitful results have been achieved in practical cooperation in various fields, bringing tangible benefits to the Nicaraguan people. The delivery and operation of buses produced in China have boosted the development of Nicaragua’s public transportation system. Nicaragua is willing to continue to strengthen practical cooperation with China in economy, trade, transportation, humanities and other fields. The CPC, a century-old party, has led the Chinese people to make great achievements in poverty alleviation, environmental protection and economic development, providing important inspiration and reference for the FSLN.
Earlier, on January 8, Ma Hui, Vice-Minister of the IDCPC met with a delegation led by Enrique Santiago, Secretary General of the Communist Party of Spain (PCE).

Nicaragua attaches importance to China’s important role in international affairs, firmly adheres to the one-China principle, and supports the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind and the three major global initiatives proposed by President Xi Jinping. The CPC, a century-old party, has led the Chinese people to achieve great achievements in poverty alleviation, environmental protection and economic development, providing important inspiration and reference for the FSLN.
