China and Belgium signed agreements to work together in breeding giant pandas during a meeting between Premier Li Keqiang and Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo before the opening of the 7th Summer Davos Forum in Dalian, Northeast China's Liaoning province, on Wednesday, according to Belgian media.

Two giant pandas are to be settled at Pairi Daiza (formerly Paradisio) zoo and botanical garden, 70 kilometers from Brussels, but no details of the agreement have been disclosed.

The zoo started building a Giant Panda House this year, getting ready to welcome the pandas, and a related news conference may be held on Friday.
