MINSK, Aug. 29 (Xinhua) -- Visiting Chinese Vice Premier Hui Liangyu met with Belarusian Prime Minister Sergei Sidorsky here Friday to cement ties between the two countries.

Hui, who was on a stop-over trip to Belarus, conveyed Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao's good wishes to the Belarusian leader.

During the meeting, Hui said that China and Belarus have always been respecting, supportive and trusting partners. The friendly cooperative relations between the two countries have stood the test of time and changing situations, and such relations have been developing smoothly.

He called on both sides to carry out the important understandings previously reached by leaders of the two countries, and strengthen economic, trade, agricultural and cultural exchanges.
