Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said on Tuesday that China-Russia cooperation was constantly deepening.

"China-Russia ties have developed at a sound momentum and cooperation has constantly deepened," Wen told the visiting Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev.

As neighbors and important international players, China and Russia should view their relations from a long-term and global perspective.

Wen said activities to celebrate the Year of Russia in China were progressing smoothly and would greatly promote exchanges and cooperation in politics, legislatures, economy, science, technology and among people.

"Hopefully the Year of China in Russia next year will also exert a positive impact on bilateral ties," Wen said.

Medvedev said mutual trust and cooperation have reached "unprecedented heights".

The Year of Russia in China had been successful, said Medvedev, who also chaired the Russian side of the organizing committee for the Year of Russia and the Year of China.

"Russia will do its utmost to ensure the Year of China in Russia a success."
