The Chinese government will maintain its friendly policy with Japan, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said here Tuesday, hours before Yasuo Fukuda was announced as Japan's new prime minister.
"We congratulate Yasuo Fukuda on becoming the prime minister. China is willing to continue to make joint efforts with Japan to advance strategic and mutually beneficial relations and push bilateral relations on the track of healthy and stable development," Jiang said.
Maintaining high-level visits was an important consensus reached by the leaders of the two nations, and China was willing to work with Japan to realize the consensus, she said.
To mark the 35th anniversary of the normalization of bilateral diplomatic ties, a series of activities would be held during the second half of 2007.
Jiang said the activities would advance mutual understanding and friendly sentiments between the two peoples and would play a positive role in pushing forward bilateral ties.
