China congrats Orsi on election as Uruguayan president

Beijing, Nov 25 (Prensa Latina) China on Monday congratulated Uruguayan President-elect Yamandu Orsi after his victory in the presidential elections and reaffirmed its willingness to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation.

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning stressed the importance Beijing attaches to its relations with Montevideo, calling it a significant strategic partner in Latin America.

Mao also voiced willingness to work with the new Uruguayan government to enhance mutual political trust, expand cooperation in several fields, and consolidate coordination in international and regional affairs.

The spokesperson underscored that both countries share a commitment to deepen their comprehensive strategic partnership to generate mutual benefits and contribute to the two nations’ welfare.

Orsi, of the Broad Front (Frente Amplio-FA), defeated the ruling party’s candidate, former presidential secretary Alvaro Delgado, who presented himself as a continuation of the government of President Luis Lacalle Pou.

The president-elect will take office on March 1, 2025, promising to govern for all, with an emphasis on social justice.
