France to boost transport exchange

France is expected to expand cooperation with China in the transport sector, including the possibility of a role in the manufacture of jumbo jets, French state secretary in charge of transport, Dominique Bussereau, said on Monday.

Bussereau, who is on a three-day visit, said France does not simply see China as a huge market, but regards it as a good partner in industry.

As China unveiled its jumbo jet manufacturing company on Sunday in Shanghai, Bussereau said France does not consider China as a threat in the manufacture of commercial aircraft.
