Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva Lula met with visiting senior Chinese party official Zhang Dejiang Wednesday afternoon, saying that the Sino-Brazilian relations are as important to his country as its ties with its Latin American neighbors.

Lula praised the economic and social progress in China, and said that he was pleased with the visit of the Communist Party of China (CPC) delegation at the invitation of his left-wing Workers' Party.

He said both his government and the Workers' Party gave high priority to their relations with China, and that the two big developing countries should deepen their cooperation in technologyas well as in economy and trade.

Zhang briefed Lula on the tasks and strategic goals set forth at the 16th National Congress of the CPC last year, as well as on the economic and political development in China since this year.

Zhang, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the CPC Committee of Guangdong Province,arrived here last Friday. He was met by Vice President Jose Alencar on Wednesday morning, and will head his team to St. Paul, Brazil's largest city, later Wednesday to attend a trade fair co-sponsored by China's Guangdong province and Brazil.
