China on Monday congratulated Tunisia on its landmark election, calling on the country to start a political transition.

"China congratulates Tunisia on holding a successful constituent assembly election and expects the country to take the election as a new start, launch an inclusive political transition, ensure social stability and restore the economic development," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu said at a daily press briefing.

Jiang's comment came a day after Tunisia's constituent assembly election, the first in the country since turmoil hit the country early this year, was held Sunday, with no violence reported.

Stressing traditional friendship between China and Tunisia, Jiang said China would work with Tunisia to seek the growth of bilateral cooperation in all fields.
