Visit India Wen follows another in China by the Indian President Pratibha Patil in May - the first by a head of the Indian State in a decade - and comes in the wake of a 14th round of discussions on disputed border.
It marks the latest attempt to redefine relations long beset by mutual suspicion and natural rivalry which takes account of nations of first and second most populated in the world.
"The leaders of our two countries have agreed that there is sufficient space around the world to China and the India to jointly develop and there are enough areas for China and the India to cooperate with others," Chinese Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Hu Zhengyue said a statement Monday.
The most blatant disagreement remains border China-India remote, mountainous, on which the two fought a brief but brutal war in 1962. The two do not yet have a commonly designated line control and a resolution is not planned in the near future.
China also aggravated Indian concerns by refusing visas stamp passports held by residents of Kashmir in motion due to the questioning of the sovereignty of New Delhi area also claimed by Pakistan.
Indian firms, meanwhile, complain wellbore exports to China many markets that represent approximately two thirds of bilateral trade is expected to $ 60 billion this year. Stressing the disproportionate economic relationship, Reliance Power India in October has entered into a contract with a company of Shanghai for the purchase of equipment and services valued $ 8.9 billion over 10 years. Indian exports to China, however, remain largely limited to materials such as iron ore raw.

Beijing last year angrily protested a visit by the Dalai Lama week in the State in the northeast of Arunachal Pradesh, which it claims is the Chinese territory. China, meanwhile, occupies part of Kashmir claimed by the India.
"This is not a relationship that is contradictory on this point, although it could become in future," said Jasjit Singh, Director of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, New Delhi.
Despite these differences, the parties have worked find common ground on international issues of concern for the large developing called the BRICS countries block.
Both pushed for more great word to say in the global finance due to the economic crisis world ravaged on advanced economies, leaving their own largely free. They found also briefly cause climate change talks year last in Copenhagen, where they are United to resist a surge by industrialized countries to achieve a new legally binding treaty.
"We shouldn't forget that the relationship was much worse in the past," said T.C.A. future, a retired Indian diplomat.
In Pakistan, Wen should focus on energy cooperation and pushing, China's $ 200 million to assist future pledge support to rebuild the country after devastating floods in the summer.
