A new round of meetings between the Finance Ministers of China and Japan is underway in Beijing.
Chinese Finance Minister Lou Jiwei is holding discussions with Japanese Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Taro 1 Aso.
Lou Jiwei says the two have already discussed a number of key areas.
"China and Japan have pledged to further advance financial cooperation in East Asia and have discussed the direction for the future development of ASEAN+3 financial cooperation. Both sides have also agreed that these talks are important. Both sides are looking forward to the Sixth China-Japan Finance Dialogue in Tokyo in the coming year."
The meetings are the first in some 2-years.
Economic discussions between China and Japan were put on-hold amid the political tensions between the two sides the past couple of years.
Observers are suggesting the re-establishment of economic discussions is a signal of easing tensions between the two sides.
