BRIC countries and China-Latin America relations

It is true that the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) all have their own special features. But I'd like to point out that the four countries are at a similar level and stage of economic development and that their positions on major international issues are close. In the face of increasing global challenges, the BRIC countries have enhanced cooperation among themselves and with other countries in the world in an active, pragmatic, open and transparent manner. I believe this is in the interests of the whole world. We wish the second BRIC summit to be held in Brazil this summer full success.

On the subject of Latin America, I believe Latin America and China are highly complementary in terms of the economy and trade and social development. There are good prospects for cooperation between the two sides.
