Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao's Official Visit to Athens

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao is due to arrive in Athens today for a three day official visit.  Athens will be his first stop in a tour of Europe. It is also the first visit to Greece by a Chinese Premier in the last 24 years.  It comes just two years after a visit to the country by Chinese President Hu Jintao in November 2008.
In an interview with Chinese news agency Xinhua, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou said the visit was indicative of the: “very strong strategic relationship” developing between the two countries, for the mutual benefit of both.
According to China’s Ambassador in Athens Luo Linquan, the visit will further enhance strategic cooperation with Greece and the European Union as a whole. It is another message to the world that China gives its vote of confidence to Greece’s economic prospects and is willing to assist Greece and the EU in overcoming the economic crisis.
