习近平表示，当前，中国正在全面深化改革、扩大对外开放，朝着实现“两个一百年”的奋斗目标迈进。这对荷兰、对世界都是重大利好。我们欢迎荷方积极参与到这一进程中来，分享中国发展机遇，促进共同繁荣进步。我们也愿意学习借鉴荷兰的先进技术和管理经验。我希望通过这次访问，同荷方领导人共同规划两国关系未来发展方向，推动中荷关系迈上新台阶，为中欧关系作出新贡献。

宴会上，威廉-亚历山大国王发表热情洋溢的讲话，表示习近平主席到访令荷兰人民深感荣幸。中国是古老又充满活力的国家。中国人民勤劳、智慧，正在为实现中国梦而奋斗。中国的发展对世界和平与繁荣至关重要。荷兰珍视同中国的友谊，愿同中国在实现各自美好梦想进程中携手合作。
习近平在致辞中说，一踏上荷兰土地，我们就感受到荷兰人民对中国人民的友好情谊。中国和荷兰虽然分处亚欧大陆两端，但两国交往源远流长，是东西方文明互学互鉴、共同繁荣的典范。进入21世纪，中国同荷兰和欧洲更加紧密联系在一起。荷兰是欧洲的门户，我选择从荷兰推开欧洲的大门。欧洲是多极化世界中的重要一极。中方始终从战略高度看待中欧关系，愿同欧方加强全方位合作。希望荷兰为促进中欧关系发展作出新的更大贡献。

Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Dutch King Willem-Alexander here on Saturday, vowing to further develop ties between the two countries.
Xi arrived here early Saturday for a state visit to the Netherlands, the first one ever made by a Chinese president to the western European country since the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two nations.
King Willem-Alexander spoke highly of the relations between the Netherlands and China. He said the Dutch royal family had friendly exchanges with China over a long period and his mother Beatrix had paid multiple visits to China when she was the queen.
He said the Netherlands is willing to be a good partner of China, and expects bilateral practical cooperation and cultural exchanges to be strengthened. The King believed Xi's visit will further boost Netherlands-China relations.
For his part, Xi said the Netherlands is one of the first western countries to recognize the People's Republic of China and the two countries' cooperation has been at the forefront among China's cooperation with European countries.
The Netherlands has been China's second biggest trading partner in the European Union (EU) for 11 years. It is also China's third largest source of foreign direct investment in the EU.
Meanwhile, China is the biggest trading partner and second largest source of investment for the Netherlands outside the EU.
Xi attributed the cooperation achievements to the diligence, pragmatism and innovation of both the Chinese and Dutch people.
China is deepening its reforms and opening wider to the outside world, which will bring significant opportunities for the Netherlands and the world, Xi said, adding China welcomes the Netherlands to play a role in the process and share development opportunities for common prosperity.
China is willing to learn from the Netherlands in the aspects of technology and governance, Xi said, adding he would like to work with the Dutch leadership in planning the future development of bilateral relations during his visit, so as to bring the ties to a higher level and make new contributions to China-Europe relations.
Xi appreciated the King's contribution to China-Netherlands friendship, especially his contribution to the water resources cooperation by using his own knowledge in the area.
The two leaders also exchanged views on financial services and anti-terrorism, agreeing to strengthen China-Netherlands cooperation to jointly cope with global challenges.
At a state banquet on Saturday evening, King Willem-Alexander said China's development is crucial to world peace and prosperity. The Netherlands cherishes its friendship with China, and is willing to cooperate with China as both countries endeavor to realize their dreams.
Xi said the exchanges between China and the Netherlands are exemplary in the mutual learning between the East and the West.
"As soon as we step on the soil of the Netherlands, we feel the Dutch people's friendship toward the Chinese people," Xi said.
China attaches strategic importance to its relations with Europe and is ready to step up all-round cooperation, Xi said, hoping the Netherlands will make further contribution to the development of China-Europe relations.
