During the past two days, Malta hosted talks between Jake Sullivan, the United States National Security Advisor to President Joe Biden, and Wang Yi, the People’s Republic of China Foreign Minister, who were also accompanied by their respective delegations.
During these two days a meeting between Prime Minister Robert Abela and Jake Sullivan was also held in which both sides highlighted that the stability of the Mediterranean region is of paramount importance for global peace and security. Prime Minister Robert Abela underlined the importance of global peace as a fundamental prerequisite for a prosperous world where the quality of life for people and communities enables nations to cooperate and address global challenges.
This weekend hosting of these discussions by Malta reaffirms the country’s longstanding role as a natural and safe place for holding high-level diplomatic discussions. When called upon like these past days, Malta will continue to give its part to facilitate more open channels of communications in line with its longstanding position of advocating for a more just, peaceful and prosperous future.
