"The two sides had an in-depth exchange of views and reached broad consensus on relations between the two countries as well as regional and international issues of common interest," said a joint press communique after their talks.
China and Myanmar should enhance strategic mutual trust, and conduct win-win cooperation for common development, which will lay a solid foundation for advancing the fundamental interests of the two peoples and for achieving lasting stability and prosperity of the region, said the communique.
During the talks, U Thein Sein invited Xi to visit Myanmar and the Chinese president expressed his willingness to visit to Myanmar "at a mutually convenient time."
"The two sides will maintain the tradition of high-level visits," said the communique, adding that the frequent contacts between the leaders of the two countries will help to enhance strategic communication and take China-Myanmar relations forward in the right direction.
