The more difficult times are, the more important the trilateral cooperation is. She noted that the three countries should accumulate mutual trust to strengthen confidence to address challenges, consolidate economic ties to maintain regional supply chains stability by utilizing the RCEP, and further promote people-to-people exchange to build a strong public opinion foundation for mutual trust.
