BEIJING, June 7 (Xinhua) -- Senior Communist Party of China (CPC) official Liu Yunshan Wednesday met with representatives of media from BRICS countries who are in Beijing for the BRICS Media Forum.
Liu, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, praised the cooperation among BRICS countries over the past decade, saying that it had significantly boosted global economic growth, improved global governance and promoted the practice of democracy in international relations.
As China hosts the Ninth BRICS Summit in September, Liu said he hoped the member states of BRICS would further gather consensus and promote BRICS cooperation to a new level.
He hoped BRICS media would carry forward the spirit of BRICS, deepen mutually beneficial cooperation, tell good stories of BRICS countries and inject more positive energy into BRICS partnership.
This year's forum, with the theme "Deepening BRICS Media Cooperation, Promoting Fair and Just International Public Opinion," was proposed by Xinhua and jointly organized with mainstream media from Brazil, Russia, India and South Africa.
