(3 May 2017) Danish Prime Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen met his Chinese counterpart in Beijing on Wednesday as part of his official four-day visit to China to boost bilateral ties.
Rasmussen was received by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang with a welcoming ceremony outside the Great Hall of the People before the two sat down for meetings.
They also signed six Memorandums of Understanding (MOU), ranging from food and drug cooperation to panda conservation and film cooperation.
It's the first official visit by a Danish head of government to China since 2008.
Rasmussen and his foreign minister met the spiritual leader of Tibet, the Dalai Lama, in May 2009, and China reacted sternly, saying Danish leaders had seriously harmed bilateral relations.
The two sides renewed their ties after Danish Queen Margrethe II visited China in 2014.
China is Denmark's largest trading partner in Asia and bilateral trade has increased to more than 110 billion Danish kroner (16.11 billion US dollars), the China Daily said, citing data from Denmark's statistical authorities.
Rasmussen is scheduled to launch a Chinese-Danish Food and Drug Regulatory Cooperation Centre on Friday that will help facilitate knowledge-sharing between public authorities in the two countries.
