BEIJING, Dec. 19 (Xinhua) -- China and Norway have reached consensus on normalization of ties, according to a meeting between Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Norwegian Foreign Minister Borge Brende Monday in Beijing.
Li said the two countries' foreign ministers had candid and in-depth talks, and reached an agreement on the normalization of bilateral ties.
China hopes to work together with Norway to open a new chapter for bilateral ties, and push forward a sustained, healthy and stable growth of relations, Li said.
China-Norway relations deteriorated due to controversy around the Nobel Peace Prize award in 2010 and events connected to the Prize.
