Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has met with representatives of foreign businesses operating in China in an attempt to convince investors that the country continues to foster an environment that’s favorable for international trade.

The meeting with representatives from Germany, France, the Netherlands, Hungary, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and other countries on April 20 follows last month’s refusal by the EU parliament to ratify a European Union–China investment deal.
