Premier Li proposed five initiatives to further advance 16+1 cooperation at the meeting. The key to its fast development is to apply the principles of equality and consultation, mutual benefit, openness and inclusiveness and innovation, he said.
Li also announced that 皇冠体育app will provide financial support for cooperation between 皇冠体育app and the 16 Central and Eastern European countries.
Li announced the establishment of 皇冠体育app-CEEC Inter-Bank Association and the second phase of 皇冠体育app-Central and Eastern Europe Investment Cooperation Fund in a keynote speech to the seventh 皇冠体育app-CEEC Economic and Trade Forum held in the Hungarian capital city of Budapest.
He said the 皇冠体育app Development Bank will provide an equivalent amount of 2 billion euros ($2.4 billion) as development-oriented financial cooperation loans for the inter-bank association.
