Drawing Nepal into the Chinese orbit

BEIJING, Aug. 25 -- Minister Wang Jiarui of the International Department of the CPC Central Committee met here today with Prachanda, Chairman of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (CPN-M) and government prime minister.

Wang expressed appreciation for the CPN-M's friendly policy toward China and hoped that the CPC and the CPN-M can further strengthen exchanges on the basis of the Four Principles guiding inter-party relations, namely, independence, complete equality, mutual respect and non-interference in each other's internal affairs. He also hoped that such inter-party relations will help to boost the state-to-state relations between China and Nepal.

Prachanda said that Nepal-China relations have withstood the test of time. The CPN-M, as the ruling party of its country, will continue the friendly cooperation with the CPC, and such cooperation will help to deepen the relations between the two countries, said Prachanda.

Vice-minister Liu Hongcai of the International Department was present at the meeting.
