ATHENS, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping said here Monday that he resonates with his Greek counterpart, Prokopis Pavlopoulos, every time they converse, and that China resonates with Greece every time the two sides communicate.
"When drinking with a bosom friend, a thousand cups will still be too little," he said when meeting with Pavlopoulos, quoting a Chinese proverb.
It is because, Xi said, as two countries with ancient civilizations, China and Greece share common or similar visions and have achieved national modernization and development through arduous struggles.
The China-Greece friendship is not only the cooperation between two countries but also a dialogue between two great civilizations, he said.
