Japan Prime Minister Aso to visit China in late March

BEIJING —
Prime Minister Taro Aso is considering visiting Beijing at the end of March for talks with Chinese President Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao, sources familiar with Japan-China relations said Tuesday. The Japanese and Chinese governments are making a final arrangement so that Aso would visit Beijing for two days from March 28, the sources said.

Aso and the Chinese leaders are expected to discuss joint gas exploration in the disputed East China Sea and a case of tainted Chinese-made frozen dumpling that made people sick in Japan, the sources said. Their meeting would take place at a time when Beijing has expressed distrust in Japanese Prime Minister Aso in connection with the disputed islets in the East China Sea.
