Relations between Israel and the People’s Republic of China continue to improve, David Kimche, former Director-General of the Foreign Ministry, told Maariv Friday. He noted that progress can be recorded month by month. “There is much in Israel which interests China,” Kimche stated, “and therefore I am convinced that we are headed in the right direction with China: an emphasis on economic ties, without an attempt to make them conditional on any sort of political commitment.”
