BEIJING, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Vice President Zeng
Qinghong held talks on Wednesday with Truong Tan Sang, member of the Political
Bureau of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), vowing to further the
relationship and all-round cooperation.
"China and Vietnam should view the relations from the
strategic and long-term perspective," Zeng said.
He added that the sound relations, fostered by the
leadership of the old generation of the two countries, should be treasured.
China and Vietnam have followed the principles of
long-term stability, facing the future, good-neighborliness and all-round
cooperation in the recent years and made progress in the development of the
bilateral ties, Zeng said.
In the first half of this year, the trade volumes
between the two countries hit 6.67 billion U.S. dollars, up 45.9 percent year on
year.
"Chinese government and Party value relations with
Vietnam and will work with the Vietnamese counterpart to push forward the
good-neighborly and cooperative relationship," Zeng said.
Truong Tan Sang said Vietnam and China have enjoyed
common interest, and furthering the friendship with China has long been
Vietnam's guideline and conformed to the aspiration of the two peoples.
He said Vietnam will cement the cooperation with
China in all fields.
