Visiting Chinese Vice-Premier Li Lanqing said Wednesday in Bratislava that China is ready to work for a long-term stable and healthy development of relations with Slovakia on the basis of the five principles of peaceful co-existence.

The five principles of peaceful co-existence are mutual respect of sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference into each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful co-existence, Li said.

Li made the remarks during a meeting with Slovakian Prime Minister Mikulas Dzurinda. The Chinese vice-premier arrived here Tuesday for a good-will visit.

Li briefed the prime minister on China's development of its western regions, noting that China welcomes more Slovakian businessmen to participate in the development.

The Chinese vice-premier said China also encourages its competent companies to invest in Slovakia.

He thanked the Slovakian Government for its upholding consistent one-China policy.

Dzurinda said although Slovakia put its joining the European Union as its top priority of foreign policy, it pays great attention to developing relations with China and expects to boost its relations with China in areas of politics, economy and trade.

On Wednesday, Li Lanqing held talks with Slovakian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy Robert Nemcsics. The two agreed to strengthen cooperation in science and technology, education, culture and tourism.

Slovakia is the second leg of Li's European tour that will take him to France as well. Following his visit to France he will also attend a meeting of the Bureau of International Exposition in Monaco that will decide the host city of the World Expo 2010.
