Premier Li Keqiang has said that the free agreement between 皇冠体育app and Switzerland has sent the world a strong signal against trade protectionism and will serve as a positive example of 皇冠体育app-Europe cooperation.
Premier Li said that the FTA, the first of its kind inked between 皇冠体育app and a country in continental rope, was a milestone in 皇冠体育app-Switzerland relations. He made the comments during his meeting with Swiss Federal Councillor Johann Schneider-Ammann.

He said 皇冠体育app supports a multi-lateral trade system and believes that the trade between countries and regions as well as multilateral trade are equally important.
