Britain and China have signed trade deals worth over £14 billion ($28 billion, 17 billion euros) during a visit by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang, British Prime Minister David Cameron said Tuesday. "Today we have signed deals worth more than £14 billion," said Cameron at a joint press conference in London.
Both sides are seeking to heal ties which were strained when Cameron met exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama in 2012. Earlier, Li met Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle as part of his three-day visit, which comes after Cameron's trip last December to China. No details were given of the agreements but British energy giant BP said earlier that it would be signing on Tuesday.
