At a press conference in Beijing, Wen said: "China is also a country that is prone to earthquake disasters and we fully empathise with how the Japanese people feel now."
"When the massive Wenchuan earthquake struck, the Japanese government sent a rescue team to China and also offered supplies," said Wen, referring to the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.
"A Chinese rescue team arrived in Japan yesterday and we have provided relief supplies to Japan. We will continue to provide further necessary aid to Japan in accordance with their needs," he said.
