Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng doubled down on China’s opposition to the 'weaponization of trade' during a meeting with U.S. Senator Steve Daines in Beijing. The talks, part of efforts to stabilize U.S.-China ties, underscored Beijing’s call to avoid politicizing economic cooperation. 💼✨
'Mutual respect and equality are the keys to unlocking shared success,' He told Daines, emphasizing China’s readiness for dialogue. He highlighted the 'vast potential' for collaboration between the two countries, from tech to green energy, but warned against turning trade into 'political artillery.' 🚫🔫
Daines, a Republican senator who arrived in Beijing last week, agreed on the need for 'practical dialogue.' His visit followed discussions with Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu, where both sides tackled 'issues of mutual concern' amid ongoing trade tensions. 🤝🗣️
China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning reiterated the message, saying, 'Healthy U.S.-China relations are what the world wants.' The meetings signal cautious optimism as both nations navigate a complex economic landscape. 🌐📈
