The AP and Xinhua have a relationship going back over 50 years, and it has stood the test of time, said Veerasingham.
“We have seen many changes in the world, but I think the relationship that the two organizations have forged together for so long is a really important indicator for how we can strengthen our relationship in the years ahead,” said Veerasingham.
