Fee trade with China

Minister Bo Xilai met with Swiss Federal Councilor and Minister of Economics Doris Leuthard on July 8 in Beijing. They exchanged views on subjects concerning bilateral trade and economic development.

7月8日,商务部长薄熙来与瑞士联邦委员兼经济部长洛伊特哈德在北京举行会谈,就双边经贸关系的广泛议题交换意见。

After the meeting, the two sides signed the Joint Declaration of Chinese Ministry of Commerce and Swiss Ministry of Economics. Switzerland recognized the full market economy status of China, and the two sides agreed to contribute to the assessment and research of China-Switzerland free trade zone.

会谈结束后,双方签署了《中国商务部与瑞士经济部联合声明》,瑞士宣布承认中国完全市场经济地位,双方各自积极推动中瑞自贸区的评估和研究工作。

Bo appreciated the comments from the Swiss side. Switzerland’s attitude showed their objective and unbiased view on Chinese market economy, and thus laid a firmer foundation and created a fairer environment for the further development of China-Switzerland economic ties. It also gave the Chinese economic world more impetus to cooperate with Swiss enterprises.
  
薄熙来对瑞士在欧洲中国家率先承认中国完全市场经济地位表示高度赞赏。他说,这体现了瑞士对中国市场经济建设成就客观、公正的评价,从而为中瑞经贸关系的全面发展营造了公平环境,奠定了更坚实的基础。中国经济界也将有更充分的理由与瑞士企业开展合作。

Bo encouraged Swiss companies to participate in the rejuvenation of traditional industrial sites in northeastern China, and in the development of the central and western regions. Bo explained that China had noticed Swiss government and business’s attention on China-Switzerland free trade zone, and that the two sides could conduct research and assessment concerning the problem and work toward the same goal of establishing the free trade zone.

薄熙来说,中瑞经贸关系发展顺利。不少瑞士企业在中国成功投资,众多瑞士品牌深入人心。欢迎瑞士企业积极参与中国振兴东北老工业基地、中部和西部的开发,加强双方在节能、环保、高技术、农牧业、中小企业及教育培训方面的合作。中方注意到瑞士政府和经济界对中瑞自贸区问题的关切,双方可就自贸区问题开展评估和研究,并朝建立自贸区的方向共同努力。

Doris Leuthard said that Swiss government and enterprises attached much importance to economic cooperation with China and were fully confident about the prospect of Chinese economy. It was based on the perception of its promising economic reality that Switzerland recognized China’s full market economy status, Doris Leuthard said, and such an attitude would be beneficial to the two countries.

洛伊特哈德说,瑞士政府和企业对与中国开展经贸合作高度重视,对中国经济的前景充满信心。瑞士承认中国完全市场经济地位,正是看到了中国经济快速发展的现实,相信这有利于深化两国经贸关系,并使双方共同受益。愿与中方就建立瑞中自贸区问题进行商谈,尽早启动可行性研究,为两国经贸关系的持续发展创造新的条件。

The two sides also signed Memorandum of Understanding on Establishing China-Switzerland Joint Committee Intellectual Property Team.  

双方还签署了《关于设立中瑞联委会知识产权工作组的谅解备忘录》。
