Russian President Vladimir Putin said Monday in Beijing that he was confident of a bright future for Sino-Russian relations.

During his talks with Chinese President Jiang Zemin, Putin said that the relations between Russia and China were of great significance, which would always take priority in Russia's foreign policy.

Putin said he absolutely agreed with President Jiang's summary for the successful growth of bilateral ties over the past decade, as well as Jiang's suggestions on the further promotion of bilateral ties.

Russia and China had always fostered a friendly and cooperative relationship which was marked by past gratifying achievements in political, economic relations and trade, scientific, technological, cultural and other sectors, he said.

He added that the two countries had also coordinated and cooperated very well in international affairs.

"All these achievements enable us to be fully confident of a bright future for Russia-China relations," he said.

Putin also expressed his belief that more achievements in bilateral cooperation would be made next year thanks to concerted efforts by both sides.
