Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Tuesday sent a message to Japan's newly-elected Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, expressing China's willingness to make efforts to develop good neighborly, friendly, and cooperative relations with Japan on the basis of three political documents.

The three documents -- the Sino-Japanese Joint Statement, the Peace and Friendship Treaty, and the Sino-Japanese Joint Declaration -- have been the guiding principles for the development of Sino-Japanese relations over the past 30-plus years.

Also on Tuesday, Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing sent a message to his Japanese counterpart Taro Aso to congratulate him on his reelection.
