BELEM, Brazil, Nov. 5 (Xinhua) -- Visiting Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang said Wednesday that China has always viewed and developed its relations with Brazil from a strategic and long-term perspective, and stands ready to work with the country to solidly advance the building of a China-Brazil community with a shared future.
Ding, also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks during talks with Chief of Staff of the Brazilian Presidency Rui Costa.
Ding said that under the strategic guidance of the two heads of state, the building of a China-Brazil community with a shared future and the alignment of the two countries' development strategies have been progressing smoothly, and that cooperation in various fields has achieved fruitful results and bilateral relations have entered the best period in history.
He said that the fourth plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China adopted recommendations for the formulation of the country's 15th Five-Year Plan, making top-level designs and strategic plans for China's future development, and providing more opportunities for China and Brazil to deepen practical cooperation.
Ding called on the two sides to become reliable partners on each other's path to modernization, enhance the alignment of their development strategies, advance cooperation in key areas in an efficient and practical manner, and better support the common development and revitalization of the two countries.
China prizes Brazil's leading position in the Southern Common Market (Mercosur) and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), and is willing to work with Brazil to promote greater development of China's relations with Mercosur and with CELAC, Ding said.
For his part, Costa said that the two peoples enjoy close ties, and the Brazilian people increasingly believe that cooperation with China has promoted Brazil's economic development and improvement of people's livelihood, and enhanced people's well-being. They regard China as a reliable partner and support deepening Brazil-China strategic cooperation, he added.
Brazil is willing to work with China to follow through on the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, accelerate cooperation in key areas and enhance people-to-people and cultural exchanges so as to lift the building of a Brazil-China community with a shared future to a new level, Costa said.
