Senior officials from the Ministry of Culture and Sports and the Chinese embassy are expected to attend the event along with a number of heads of diplomatic missions in the state.
The ceremony underscores the deep relations between Qatar and China in various fields, including culture. There is mutual recognition of each other’s culture, which further highlights the good relations between the two peoples, the statement notes.
Qatar’s hosting of Chinese cultural events has been continuing since the Qatar-China Year of Culture, which was observed in 2016 and featured a number of events organised in both countries.
