HAMBURG, Germany, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) -- The relationship between China and the Europe Union (EU) was "stronger than ever before," Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said here Wednesday at a Sino-European economic summit. The two sides had put in place a mechanism of annual meetings between the leaders, established a comprehensive strategic partnership and were negotiating a new set of agreements on partnership and cooperation, Wen said in a speech at the 2nd Hamburg Summit entitled "China meets Europe."
The EU had been China's largest trade partner for two years and China was the first non-EU country to participate in the Galileo program, which "epitomized the extensive and multi-dimensional China-EU cooperation and marked a new stage of sound and stable growth of our relationship," said the premier.China-EU relations were based on a solid foundation, he said. Politically, the two sides shared much in common as both believed in multilateralism, pursued democracy in international relations and worked to safeguard the authority of the United Nations.
The Chinese premier will meet German President Horst Koehler and Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin on Thursday.
