(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-06-20 15:03 ZAGREB: Chinese President Hu Jintao arrived in the Croatian capital of Zagreb Friday for a state visit to strengthen the comprehensive cooperative partnership between the two nations.
This is the first visit to Croatia by a Chinese head of state since the two countries established diplomatic ties 17 years ago.
The two countries are expected to sign a host of cooperation deals involving various sectors during the visit. "I believe that President Hu's visit to Croatia will have great impact on consolidating traditional friendship between China and Croatia and deepening all-round and mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries," said Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Li Hui last week. The China-Croatia ties have developed steadily since the two countries established diplomatic relations 17 year ago. Their bilateral relations have entered a new era since the two countries forged a comprehensive cooperative partnership in 2005. In recent years, China and Croatia have had more high-level exchanges, strengthened their political mutual trust, expanded their fruitful cooperation to all fields, and maintained close cooperation and mutual support on issues concerning each other's basic interests. Croatia is the last leg of President Hu's three-nation tour, which has already taken him to Russia and Slovakia. Hu had earlier attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and a summit of BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) in Yekaterinburg, Russia. |
