民相亲从青少年做起——淄博市外事侨务办深化国际友城青少年交流工作

The Affection Between Two Countries' Civilian should Be Done from Teenagers——Zibo Municipal Foreign Affairs & Overseas Chinese Affairs Office deepens the exchange of teenagers with international sister cities

习近平总书记曾指出，“国之交在于民相亲，而民相亲要从青年做起”。青少年既是播种友谊的使者，也是未来友好关系的建设者、深化合作的推动者。近年来，淄博市外事侨务办始终坚持推进国际友城青少年交流工作，围绕“胸怀世界议外侨、跟着经济干外侨、跳出外侨看外侨”指导思想，以官方带民间、以交流促合作，不断夯实“城、站、人”（友城、工作站、联络人）工作根基。

General Secretary Xi Jinping once pointed out, ＂The relationship between two countries is based on the affection between two countries＇ civilian. Therefore, it has to be done from teenagers.＂ Teenagers are not only messengers of friendship, but also constructors of the future friendship and promoters of further cooperation. In recent years, Zibo Municipal Foreign Affairs ＆ Overseas Chinese Affairs Office always adheres to promote the exchange of teenagers with international sister cities.
