A Web site that’s apparently the first to broadly discuss Latvia in the Chinese language has been established by the Latvian Embassy in the People’s Republic of China, President Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga’s press office has announced.

The site was unveiled as the president continued her state visit to China.

The site, the content of which also is available in English, discusses Latvia’s diplomatic, trade and cultural relationships with China and provides consular information for those interested in traveling to Latvia.

The site may be viewed at www.latvianembassy.org.cn.
