BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang will meet with European Union leaders on April 1, China's foreign ministry said on Wednesday.
It was China's first confirmation that a China-EU summit would take place this week. The event has been postponed a number of times against a backdrop of deteriorating relations.
The leaders will meet virtually, ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told a regular press briefing in Beijing.
