She also urged promoting educational exchanges and Chinese language teaching and learning in Brazil.

On the international front, she said, Brazil is ready to work with China to enhance cooperation under such multilateral frameworks as the Group of 20, and jointly speed up the reform of the international monetary and financial systems.

The two leaders favored establishing a China-Brazil business forum to promote cooperation between the two countries' enterprises.

Xi appreciated the important role Brazil has played in Latin American affairs, hoping the region would grow stronger.

"China is ready to strengthen the comprehensive cooperative partnership with Latin America through the establishment of a China-Latin America cooperation forum, achieve win-win cooperation and promote South-South cooperation," he said.

Rousseff supported establishing such a forum.

Leaders of five major emerging economies -- Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, collectively known as BRICS -- wrapped up their latest round of summit in this South African city Wednesday that aimed to promote their partnership for development, integration and industrialization.
