Healthy China-US investing benefits all, says Li

China will further open up to the outside world and improve its business environment while welcoming foreign companies, including those from the United States, Premier Li Keqiang said on Friday.

Li made the remark when meeting with a delegation from US company Exxon-Mobil that was headed by its chairman and CEO, Darren Woods.

Healthy development of two-way investments between China and the US is beneficial to both sides as well as to the recovery of the global economy and stable growth of international trade, Li said. Countries should make joint efforts to safeguard trade liberalization and investment facilitation, and China welcomes ExxonMobil to invest in large petrochemical projects, he said.
