President Xi Jinping has called for China and Vietnam to boost bilateral cooperation as he received Vietnamese President Tran Dai Quang, who ranks second in Vietnam after Communist Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong. Tran is on his first visit to China since taking office in April 2016. Xi said that the two countries’ relations had maintained a positive momentum over the last six months. Quang praised China’s economic reforms, and called for the two parties and countries to cooperate more on trade, agriculture, tourism, security, infrastructure and cultural exchanges. The two leaders witnessed the signing of five agreements, including on additional funding for a light-rail transit project in Hanoi.
