Keynote Speaker: Mr. Henning Kristoffersen, Special Advisor, The Governance Group

​

Subject: 

Start of the new decade - An outlook on Norway-China relations

Introduction: Joe Biden assumes office as president while US-China tensions are high. EU and China recently signed a comprehensive investment agreement, and China became Europe's top trade partner in 2020 - surpassing the US. At the same time the EU sees China as a "systemic rival." While Norway and China are set to reach a free trade agreement this year, the backdrop for our relations with China is one of conflicting interests among our most important allies and trading partners. Henning Kristoffersen will discuss what the new decade will bring for Norway-China relations.
