Top Chinese political advisor urges China, Italy to boost trade ties

Jia also believed Europe is able and wise enough to prevail over the euro debt problems.

As EU's trustworthy friend and partner, China supports the measures taken by the EU, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund to deal with the debt crisis, he said.

He added that over the past few months, China has enlarged its investment in the bonds of the eurozone nations and the European Financial Stability Facility.

Jia also said China would like to work with the EU to further contribute to a sustained and stable global economic growth.

Jia arrived in Italy's capital city Tuesday afternoon for an official goodwill visit to the country.

Italy is the first leg of his three-nation tour which will also take him to Costa Rica and Argentina.
