China's Hu visits Saudi Arabia

(UPI Top Stories Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)Chinese President Hu Jintao was in Saudi Arabia for his first state visit to the country Saturday and plans to discuss trade and international issues.

Hu began his three-day visit by reading a prepared statement in Riyadh, where he commended the Saudi-Chinese relationship since 1990, when diplomatic ties were made official, the Xinhua news agency reports.

Hu plans to meet with King Abdullah among other leaders.

Trade between the two countries was more than $16 billion in 2005, a 56 percent jump since 2004.

Abdullah visited China in January.

Hu came to Saudi Arabia from the United States, the first leg of a tour that will include Morocco, Nigeria and Kenya.
