Top advisor Jia Qinglin met Mongolian Prime Minister Miegombyn Enkhbold in Beijing Thursday, calling for result-oriented cooperation between the two countries.

 

The two countries should earnestly implement consensus reached by heads of the two states and deepen cooperation in various fields so as to benefit the people and contribute to peace and stability in the region, said Jia, chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), the country's top advisory body.

 

China and Mongolia enjoy potentials for further cooperation as the two countries are engaged in social and economic development, said Jia.

 

The CPPCC will work with the Mongolian side to facilitate mutual understanding and advance good-neighborly partnership of mutual trust, which was established in 2003 when Chinese President Hu Jintao paid a state visit to Mongolia.

 

Enkhbold said the reciprocal visits of the leaders have helped enhance mutual trust and promote exchanges and cooperation in various fields.

 

Enkhbold arrived here Wednesday for a six-day official visit. Besides the Chinese capital, Enkhbold will also visit Urumqi, capital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and Xi'an, capital of Shaanxi Province, both in northwest China

 

It is Enkhbold's first visit to China since he took office as Mongolian Prime Minister in January.
