BUDAPEST (Reuters) - China will provide funding worth over $3 billion for development and investment projects in Central and Eastern Europe, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said on Monday.
"Under the auspices of China-CEEC interbank association to be inaugurated today, China Development Bank will provide 2 billion euro ($2.39 billion) equivalent of development financial facility," he said at the sixth Summit of Heads of Government of Central and Eastern European countries and China.
"The second stage of China-CEEC investment cooperation fund has been launched with a capitalisation of $1 billion, most of which will be channelled to CEE countries," he added through an interpreter.
