The Chinese government hopes China and Japan can overcome political barriers, take history as guidance and look into the future to promote bilateral relations.

 

Li said a healthy and stable relationship between China and Japan is important to the peace and prosperity of both countries, as well as the region as a whole, and China's policies toward Japan are consistent.

 

"We believe that China-Japan relations must be based on the fourpoint principled consensus, draw lessons from history and overcome political impediments," Li said while meeting the Chinese and Japanese delegations of the 21st Century Committee for China-Japan Friendship, a high level advisory body on Sino-Japanese relations.

 

"China hopes Japan can carefully handle the issues of principle that could impede the healthy development of our relations," Li said. "Only if we focus on the big picture of our relations over a long term can we carry out what we have agreed and hence improve our ties."

 

Li said China and Japan could carry out more activities in educational and cultural sectors and promote exchanges between local governments and

the youth to provide the conditions to improve ties.
