Beijing (AFP) Nov 2, 2010 China on Tuesday congratulated newly elected Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff for her victory in a run-off and pledged to work with her government to deepen ties. "China-Brazilian relations enjoy a sound momentum for development," foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei told reporters in Beijing. "China is willing to join the efforts of Brazil's government and society to promote and sustain the in-depth development of the Sino-Brazilian strategic partnership." President Hu Jintao has also sent a letter of congratulations to Rousseff, Brazil's first female president, the spokesman said. Rousseff, a 62-year-old economist who was jailed by Brazil's military dictatorship in the 1970s, won the presidency on Sunday, succeeding her mentor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. She will take office on January 1. Sino-Brazilian ties flourished under Lula, with the two sides actively participating in the BRIC block of emerging nations that also includes Russia and India. China became Brazil's top trading partner in 2009, overtaking the United States. Bilateral exchanges topped 36 billion dollars last year.
