Xi Says China Seeks to Uphold UN-Based World Order

  • On Tuesday, President Xi Jinping met Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo in Beijing's Great Hall of the People, and state broadcaster CCTV said Xi appeared in good spirits.
  • On a four-day visit, Petteri Orpo joined recent Western leaders courting Beijing amid shifts in US policy and after Donald Trump unveiled a `Board of Peace` this month.
  • On Monday, Petteri Orpo said Finnish companies signed 11 trade agreements with Chinese counterparts, and the visit will see six memoranda on sustainable construction, energy cooperation and tourism promotion.
  • Despite cordial talks, Beijing and Helsinki diverge sharply on Russia's war in Ukraine and Arctic influence, with Antti Hakkanen saying China `massively` finances Russia, while Mark Rutte urged collective defence.
  • Xinhua suggested Finland could serve as a bridge in China–EU relations, and Orpo is still set to meet Premier Li Qiang before the visit wraps up, amid US and Chinese diplomatic moves.
