He said that the two countries should develop the future-oriented relations in the spirit of drawing on lessons from history.

He said that the Japanese people and political circle are looking forward to Premier Zhu's visit, expressing the belief that such a visit will help promote Sino-Japanese friendship and push forward bilateral relations in the new century.

Zhu said that Chinese President Jiang Zemin and Japanese leaders have decided to establish a friendly and cooperative partnership devoted to peace and development between the two countries, adding that his upcoming visit is designed to further promote mutual understanding and trust as well as cooperation between the two countries.
