“The People’s Republic of China and the Czech Republic must be important partners and allies and our mutual relations must evolve in reaction to the global challenges and opportunities of the 21st century in a much more progressive way.” “I have made it one of the main goals of my first presidential term to give priority to the support of investments, investors and exporters. I am personally prepared to take responsibility for the improvement of the conditions for Chinese investors and I would be happy if Czech investors received treatment comparable with Chinese companies on the Chinese market.” “It is also for this reason that I have accepted personal auspices for and participation in the China Investment Forum, in which I see an appropriate platform for the exchange of opinions on the strengthening of concrete economic and business cooperation between our two countries.” Miloš Zeman, President of the Czech Republic

“The Czech Republic is interested in building a strategic partnership with China. I consider the development of Czech-Chinese relations as one of the my main priorities and want to use the 65th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between both countries as the ideal opportunity to commence a new era of mutual cooperation.” “We wish to strengthen mutual investments and intensify and simplify business relations, expand cooperation in science and technologies, in civil aviation and the aviation industry, in education, in energy and in agriculture.” “The government of the Czech Republic puts great emphasis on the promotion of tourism and the establishment of direct flight connection between both countries.” “That is why I am looking forward to all of the guests of the China Investment Forum 2014 and discussion with them.” Bohuslav Sobotka, Prime Minister of the Czech Republic
