Agreement on closer Polish-Chinese cooperation in the field of maritime economy signed in Gdansk

On 24 October 2016, Gdansk hosted an official visit by the Minister of Maritime Economy and Inland Navigation and the Deputy Minister of Transport of the People's Republic of China, who signed a new agreement on closer Polish-Chinese cooperation in the field of maritime economy, says Port of Gdansk Authority.
An official delegation of representatives of the Polish and Chinese ministries visited the port: Marek Grobarczyk - Minister of Maritime Economy and Inland Navigation and He Jianzhong - Deputy Minister of Transport of the People's Republic of China. The ministers were accompanied by representatives of the Chinese-Polish Joint Stock Shipping Company and the largest Chinese container shipping company, Cosco, who visited the newly launched T2 terminal at DCT Gdansk and, after that, the Port Master's Office. This is where a letter of intent concerning Polish-Chinese relations in terms of the development of both countries' maritime economy was ceremonially signed. This event will give rise to further development of Polish-Chinese cooperation in the context of the Silk Road and broadly-defined trade.
