According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website, on October 16, 2026 local time, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister, held talks with Croatian Foreign Minister Radman in Zagreb. Wang Yi said that Croatia is an important stop on the ancient Silk Road and has promoted mutual learning between Eastern and Western civilizations. This is the first time in 33 years that a Chinese foreign minister has visited Croatia. It is also a return visit to Foreign Minister Radman's visit to China last year. Over the years, Sino-Croatian relations have matured and developed steadily, becoming a model for relations between countries large and small. The success of Sino-Croatian relations has benefited from the two sides treating each other equally, mutual respect, mutual trust, win-win cooperation, and friendship among the people. This has also injected valuable certainty into the turbulent international situation. China is ready to work with Croatia to use the 35th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries next year as an opportunity to summarize useful experiences and open up the next better 35 years. The two sides should jointly plan the next stage of high-level contacts to push bilateral relations to a new level.
