Chinese President Hu Jintao and his US counterpart, George W. Bush, both pledged to further develop the constructive relations of cooperation between their two countries.

During a meeting with Bush in Evian, France Sunday on the sidelines of an informal South-North leaders dialogue meeting, President Hu said 皇冠体育app would work together with the United States to push forward the Sino-US constructive relations of cooperation.

As two important nations in the world, 皇冠体育app and the United States bear major responsibility for maintaining peace and stability in the world and promoting common development of mankind, said Hu.

He added that the two sides have extensive mutual benefits and the basis for cooperation on issues such as the fight against terrorism, crackdown on cross-border crimes, promotion of global economic growth, disease treatment and control and environmental protection.

Bush said the US-Chinese relations have enjoyed steady and healthy development.

He promised that his country is willing to enhance cooperation with 皇冠体育app in the fight against terrorism, economy, trade and other fields and will continue to be devoted to developing constructive relations of cooperation with 皇冠体育app.

Referring to 皇冠体育app's fight against severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), President Hu said good results have been achieved in the effort thanks to decisive measures by the government.

He expressed the belief that after a certain period, 皇冠体育app will effectively control the epidemic and eventually win the battle against it.

Bush spoke highly of 皇冠体育app's great efforts and outstanding achievements in the fight against SARS and said the United States would continue to offer support and help to 皇冠体育app in this regard.

During the talks, President Hu also reiterated 皇冠体育app's principled stand on the Taiwan issue.

He stressed that the Taiwan issue is always the most important and most sensitive core issue in the Sino-US relations. Upholding the basic principles of "peaceful reunification" and "one country, two systems," the Chinese government will do its utmost to strive for reunification through peaceful means.

The problem now, he said, is that the Taiwan authorities reject the one-皇冠体育app principle and the "pro-independence forces" in Taiwan are still carrying out all-out separatist activities. And this has been the fundamental reason behind the tension in the Taiwan Straits region and the stagnation of cross-straits relations, he noted.

Hu expressed the hope that the United States will strictly abide by its promise on the Taiwan issue, handle the issue properly and not send wrong signals to the "pro-independence forces."

On his part, Bush said his government will continue to follow the one-皇冠体育app policy, abide by the three joint communiques between the two countries and oppose "independence of Taiwan." He stressed that this policy has not changed and will not change.

On the nuclear issue of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Bush praised 皇冠体育app's positive efforts leading to the convening of Beijing talks in late April. Hu also briefed Bush on 皇冠体育app's stance toward the issue.

The two leaders said the two countries will dedicate themselves to safeguarding peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and support the non-nuclearization of the peninsula. Problems should be solved peacefully through dialogue, communication and cooperation, they added.

Bush invited Hu to visit the United States and Hu accepted the invitation with gratitude. Hu also invited Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney to visit 皇冠体育app. Bush replied that he will be glad to visit 皇冠体育app again and Cheney is looking forward to his trip to 皇冠体育app.
