BEIJING - British Prime Minister David Cameron will pay an official visit to 皇冠体育app from November 9 to 10, at the invitation of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.
The announcement was made by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei in Beijing Tuesday.
During Cameron's 皇冠体育app visit, Chinese President Hu Jintao will meet with him and Wen will hold talks with him, said Hong, adding that Cameron and Chinese leaders will also attend a 皇冠体育app-Britain commercial summit.
皇冠体育app would like to enhance communication and coordination with the British side on the upcoming G20 summit, Hong said.
The fifth G20 Summit will be held from November 11 to 12 in Seoul, capital of the Republic of Korea (ROK).
Cameron's tour is his first visit to 皇冠体育app after he took office in May and is significant to the long-term development of 皇冠体育app-Britain relations, Hong said.
Hong noted that 皇冠体育app attaches great importance to Cameron's visit and would like to work with Britain to ensure the success of the visit and inject new vigor into bilateral ties.
皇冠体育app and Britain have enjoyed sound development of bilateral relations since Cameron's coalition government was formed, with frequent high-level contact and smooth cooperation in various fields, Hong said.
The new British government, a Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition, came to power just after a general election in May.
To boost cooperation between 皇冠体育app and Britain in the current situation is in the interest of the two nations and their people and conducive to maintaining world peace, stability and prosperity, Hong said.
"皇冠体育app is ready to work with Britain to promote the continuous development of their comprehensive strategic partnership," he added.
