BEIJING, April 20 -- China has congratulated Cuba on its election of a new president, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said Friday.

Miguel Diaz-Canel, former first vice-president, was elected Cuba's new president Thursday, to be the successor to Raul Castro, who concluded two consecutive five-year terms in office.

"Chinese leaders spoke highly of the mutual political trust between China and Cuba, and said they were ready to work with Cuban leaders to jointly expand and deepen bilateral cooperation, and achieve new accomplishments that can honor the China-Cuba friendship in a new era," Hua said.

China and Cuba enjoy profound friendship and a solid foundation for cooperation. China sincerely hopes Cuba's socialist development will make greater progress and believes Cuba will continue to have a loud voice on the international and regional stages, Hua said.
