China's Message to the New U.S. Leadership: Let's Team Up! 🙌🇨🇳🇺🇸
China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi has a message for the incoming U.S. administration: let's work together to strengthen our ties! 🤝
Meeting with Susan Elliott from the National Committee on American Foreign Policy, Wang Yi emphasized that China's approach to the U.S. remains steady and consistent. \"No matter what changes take place in the U.S., China is committed to mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation,\" he said.
He referenced President Xi Jinping's recent chat with President Joe Biden during the APEC Summit in Peru 🇵🇪, where both leaders discussed the future of China-U.S. relations. Wang highlighted that China's goal of a stable and healthy relationship with the U.S. hasn't changed one bit. 💪
Wang Yi pointed out that the ball is in America's court 🎾, hoping that the U.S. will \"meet China halfway.\" He urged the U.S. not to waver in developing steady relations and to have the right mindset about China's growth. \"China isn't aiming to challenge or replace the U.S.,\" he assured. \"Let's not get stuck in a competition mindset!\"
He also stressed the importance of respecting China's sovereignty, especially regarding sensitive issues like the Taiwan region. Wang called for more dialogue and people-to-people exchanges, saying they're key to avoiding misunderstandings and boosting cooperation. \"Talking things out helps!\" he smiled. 😄
Susan Elliott and the NCAFP delegation echoed these sentiments, expressing their mission to strengthen U.S.-China ties. They believe that keeping the conversation going is super important, especially with new leadership in the U.S. 🇺🇸
The takeaway? Both sides seem ready to keep the friendship going. Here's hoping for a brighter, more connected future! 🌟
