Chinese President Xi Jinping recently responded to a letter from Simon Lichtenberg, founder and CEO of the Danish Chamber of Commerce in China, highlighting the importance of strengthening bilateral cooperation and China’s commitment to fostering global economic partnerships. The exchange underscores Beijing’s focus on collaboration with international businesses amid evolving global dynamics.
In his reply, Xi acknowledged Lichtenberg’s contributions to advancing Sino-Danish economic ties and emphasized China’s dedication to deepening reforms and expanding market opportunities. He noted that Danish companies, as longstanding partners, are well-positioned to benefit from China’s growth in sectors such as green technology, sustainable development, and innovation.
Denmark, a key Nordic trade partner, has increasingly aligned with China on climate initiatives and digital transformation. Xi’s letter reaffirmed China’s support for cross-border collaboration, urging businesses to leverage platforms like the Belt and Road Initiative and the Global Development Initiative to drive mutual progress.
The correspondence reflects broader trends in Asia-Europe economic engagement, offering insights for investors and policymakers navigating post-pandemic recovery. Analysts suggest such dialogue reinforces stability in global supply chains and signals opportunities in emerging industries.
