According to CoinMeta, on November 3rd, Minister of Commerce Wang Wentao met with Norwegian Minister of Industry and Trade Mirsjet, during which both sides exchanged views on Sino-Norwegian economic and trade relations and the joint maintenance of the multilateral trading system. Wang Wentao stated that in recent years, under the strategic guidance of the leaders of both countries, bilateral trade between China and Norway has grown rapidly, and investment cooperation has become more diversified. China is willing to continue to deepen practical cooperation with Norway in areas such as aquatic products, green development, and maritime shipping. China also welcomes Norway's participation in the China International Import Expo for the third consecutive year. Not long ago, China followed the rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and facilitated the second regular meeting of the China-EU trade and investment consultation mechanism, leading to several important consensus outcomes that maintained the overall stability of economic and trade relations between China and the EU. Norway is an important member of the European Economic Area and the WTO. China hopes that the Norwegian government will continue to uphold multilateralism and free trade, providing a fair, transparent, non-discriminatory, and predictable business environment for Chinese enterprises developing in Norway.
