The Chinese envoy vowed that China will make the utmost efforts to help Qatar defeat the pandemic, adding that the Chinese embassy in Qatar will continue to promote cooperation, exchanges and experience sharing with Qatar in the health sector.

Qatar is willing to further strengthen cooperation and exchanges with China in the fields of epidemic control and medical care, Al-Marri added.
