Adjust font size:

Chinese President Hu Jintao  wrapped up his two-day state visit to Tanzania and left here Monday for Mauritius to continue his five-nation "journey of friendship and cooperation."

In Dar es Salaam, Hu held talks with Tanzanian President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete and met Zanzibar President Amani Abeid Karume to exchange views on bilateral ties, the implementation of the measures announced at the landmark China-Africa summit in 2006, and the global financial crisis.

During their talks, Hu said China would like to consolidate its traditional friendship with Tanzania and deepen practical cooperation with the east African country.

Kikwete, for his part, said Tanzania will strengthen its cooperation with China in trade, investment, finance, agriculture, education, health and infrastructure.

The two countries signed several cooperation deals during Hu's visit.

At a welcoming rally in the capital Monday, the Chinese president delivered a key-note speech on China-Africa relations.

Since the establishment of diplomatic ties 45 years ago, bilateral relations between the two countries have been developing very well.

At present, the development of bilateral ties has maintained a sound momentum with frequent high-level exchanges, fruitful cooperation in all areas and mutual support in international affairs.

Before Tanzania, Hu had already visited Saudi Arabia, Mali and Senegal.
