The train will travel 10,257 km via the port of Manzhouli and arrive at Tilburg in 15 days.
China will continue to expand market access and strengthen intellectual property rights protection, Qin said, adding that China welcomes more Dutch companies to expand investment in China.
Qin said China looks forward to working with the Netherlands to implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, strengthen exchanges at all levels and push for new progress in China-Netherlands relations.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two countries. China places high importance on developing relations with the Netherlands, and their heads of state have exchanged congratulatory messages, said Li.
