Chinese President Hu Jintao and Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda met Wednesday in the northern Japanese resort of Toyako and exchanged views on boosting the strategic and mutually beneficial relations between the two countries.
The two leaders met on the sidelines of the outreach session of the Group of Eight (G8) summit.
They also discussed world and regional issues of common concern.
President Hu paid an historic five-day visit to Japan in May, during which Hu and Fukuda signed a joint statement on the all-round promotion of the strategic and mutually beneficial relations between the two nations.
The joint statement formulates the guiding principles for the long-term development of bilateral relations and maps out future prospects for China-Japan ties.
The G8 summit, which began on Monday at the Windsor Hotel and will end on Wednesday, has focused on the world economy, climate change, energy security and other pressing issues.
President Hu was invited to the outreach session of the G8 summit by Fukuda and has also met with other world leaders during the summit.
The G8 groups Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States.
