Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng struck an optimistic tone during Tuesday's meeting with U.S.-China Business Council president Craig Allen, urging both nations to 'keep lengthening the list of cooperation' while addressing lingering challenges. The Beijing talks come as global markets closely watch Sino-American economic relations in 2025.
Strategic Leadership & Economic Priorities
He highlighted recent progress, noting that President Xi Jinping and his U.S. counterpart have held multiple calls and a 'successful meeting in Busan' this year. 'Guided by this leadership,' he stated, 'we must maintain momentum through high-standard opening-up as China prepares for its 15th Five-Year Plan starting in 2026.'
Business Council’s Role in Bridging Ties
Allen welcomed China's commitment to foreign investment, pledging to act as a bridge for deeper collaboration. The dialogue occurs as U.S. companies eye opportunities in China’s evolving tech and green energy sectors – key focuses of the upcoming development blueprint.
With 2025 marking a pivotal prelude to China’s next economic phase, both sides appear keen to transform diplomatic warmth into tangible trade gains. 🔥💼
