China, US Sign Agreement on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters

China and the United States signed an agreement Monday on mutual legal assistance in criminal matters in Beijing.

Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister Zhang Yesui and US Charge D'affaires to China Eugene Martin signed the Agreement between the Government of the People's Republic of China and the Government of the United States of America on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters on behalf of their respective governments.

The agreement includes mutual assistance in service of documents and in investigation and taking evidence as well as assistance in freezing, seizure and forfeiture proceedings.

The signing of the agreement will provide a legal basis for further cooperation between the two countries in cracking down on crimes.

The two countries held two rounds of talks on the agreement in September 1998 and March 1999. Both sides initiated an agreement in March 1999.
