Yu's two-day visit to Finland comes amid a dispute between China and EU on possible trade actions against Chinese solar panels and mobile telecommunications equipments.
Believing that Finland has been a major power upholding free trade and opposing protectionism, Yu hopes the Nordic country "will play a positive role and contribute to proper settlement of China-EU trade frictions."
Ahead of Yu's visit, Finnish Parliament Speaker Eero Heinaluoma said in an interview with Xinhua that it is important to support free trade on fair play basis especially during economic recession.
"In a short period, you can close your borders, but in the long run, you need the expertise technologies and innovations of other countries too," he said.
Heinaluoma said he believed "the leaders of European Union and China could do a little bit more to develop our cooperation in the future, because obviously there are so much we can do together."
