In a written statement released upon his arrival at the airport, Hu spoke highly of the achievements made by the Lao people under the PRP's leadership. China and Laos are good neighbors, friends, comrades and partners as the two countries share mountains and waters and enjoy a deep traditional friendship, he said. Relations between the two parties and the two countries are witnessing a comprehensive and in-depth development with political mutual trust, sincere economic cooperation, and mutual support and close coordination in international and regional affairs, Hu noted. Hu said he is looking forward to exchanging views with Lao leaders on bilateral relations and other issues of common concern.
