4月11日下午，中國國務(wù)院總理溫家寶抵達(dá)日本，開始了對日本為期三天的正式訪問，這也是中國總理時(shí)隔7年后的首次訪日。早在3月16日的記者招待會(huì)上，溫總理曾把去年安倍首相的訪華稱作“破冰之旅”，而把他此次訪日定位為“融冰之旅”。從破冰到融冰，國人的目光再度聚焦在扶桑古國。
兩會(huì)期間，溫總理針對中日關(guān)系引述
To avoid adversity,
one needs to try to ease enmity.避禍在除怨。
To win a friend from afar, one needs to have good
relations with his close neighbors.召遠(yuǎn)在修近。

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao arrived
in Tokyo Wednesday for a three-day official visit he described as an "ice
thawer" of Sino-Japanese ties following the "ice-breaking" trip to China last
October by his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe.
The visit is the first by a Chinese premier since 2000 and occurs against the
backdrop of the two countries working hard to mend relations.
Their relationship turned frosty under Abe's predecessor, Junichiro Koizumi,
largely due to his annual visits to the Yasukuni
shrine, where Japan's war dead including 14 class-A World War II
criminals were enshrined.
"If Prime Minister Abe's visit to China... can be described as an ice
breaker, then I hope my visit to Japan will be an ice thawer," Wen told the
press before his visit.
Abe chose China as the destination for his first overseas trip after taking
office in September, a move believed to be a sign of the new prime minister's
eagerness to improve relations with China.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry officials have revealed that the economic issue
will be high up on Wen's agenda.
China and Japan will draft a joint document spelling out the two countries'
aspirations to build a strategic, mutually beneficial relationship, and the
major tasks involved in this relationship, according to Chinese officials.
A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said that through the visit, Wen also
hopes to promote long-term educational, cultural and youth exchanges between the
two countries that would boost good-neighborly relations between China and
Japan.
During his stay, Wen is expected to hold talks with Abe and deliver a speech
in the Japanese Diet (or parliament), the first by a Chinese leader in 22 years.
In the 35 years since they normalized relations, China and Japan have
witnessed a steady growth of bilateral exchanges. The two countries also
disagree over historical issues and dispute over natural gas fields in the East
China Sea.
