Hungary has set a realistic goal of becoming the central European region's top exporter to China as well as China's top investment destination in the region, Hungary's foreign minister said on Sunday, MTI reported.
Szijjarto said Hungary has so far been successful in reaching the former goal. Data from the first eight months of the year indicate that Hungarian exports to China rose by 26 percent compared with last year's export growth rate of 25 percent. The volume of Chinese investments in Hungary has exceeded 4.1 billion US dollars, Szijjarto added.
Chinese Prime Minister Li Ke-qiang arrived in Budapest to attend the China-CEE "16+1" summit on Monday.
