Senior Chinese leader Luo Gan said in Beijing Monday that China
would like to work with Vietnam to explore the new areas of
cooperation.
China also hoped the two countries would observe the principles
of long-term stability, facing the future, friendly neighborhood
and comprehensive cooperation to promote the relationship, said
Luo, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of
the Communist Party of China Central Committee.
During a meeting with Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister Truong
Vinh Trong, Luo said the traditional friendship between the two
sides fostered by the leadership of the old generations has deeply
rooted in the two people's heart, and should be cherished.
He mentioned the visit by Vietnamese President Nguyen Minh Triet
to China in last May and the consensus reached by the leaders of
the two countries, saying the visit had mapped out how
Sino-Vietnamese relations would develop in the future.
Trong said Vietnamese Communist party and government value
relations with China and will manage to realize the consensus of
the leaders of the two countries to expand the cooperation in all
fields.
