PARIS, July 28 (Xinhua) -- China is willing to deepen and expand high-level cooperation with the International Olympic Committee (IOC), as the country will host the Asian Winter Games next year, Chinese Vice President Han Zheng said here on Saturday.

Han conveyed President Xi's cordial greetings to Bach and congratulated the IOC for the success of the splendid opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The Olympic Movement aims to safeguard world peace and promote the unity of humankind, said Han, noting that the Paris Olympics is of great significance given the need of further promoting the Olympism under current international situation.
