BEIJING -- Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva spent his second day in Beijing in meetings with Chinese leaders Tuesday, which analysts said will cement bilateral partnership.

Lula da Silva was welcomed by Chinese President Hu Jintao and a 21-gun military salute at Tian'anmen Square, festooned with the national flags of China and Brazil.

"The two leaders reached wide consensus on deepening bilateral strategic partnership and decided to start to formulate a Joint Action Plan," said the statement released by the Chinese Foreign Ministry after the talks.

Lula da Silva said the Joint Action Plan "will lay the new foundations to an expanded cooperation for 2010-2014."

Hu and Lula da Silva witnessed the signing of 13 cooperative agreements in oil, equipment, financing, loan, science, space, law, port, agricultural products, among others.

On the oil front, China Petroleum and Chemical Corporation (Sinopec) and Brazilian Oil Corporation signed a contract on crude oil trade and a memorandum of understanding.

China Development Bank also signed an agreement on loaning US$10 billion to Brazilian Oil Corporation.

China Development Bank and Brazilian Development Bank agreed on a framework deal of US$800 million credit extension loan.

In the talks, Hu reviewed the 35-year-long diplomatic ties between China and Brazil, particularly the period since both forged strategic partnership in 1993.

He said bilateral relations had fully advanced, citing frequent leaders' exchanges, a number of established mechanism.

"Our trade cooperation has expanded continuously as bilateral trade volume hit the target three years ahead of time," Hu said.

From 2006 to 2008, China-Brazil trade surged at an average annual growth of 50 percent and China replaced the United States as Brazil's top trade partner last month.

Brazil's Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Commerce said trade with China in April reached $3.2 billion, compared to $2.8 billion with the United States.
