Li Qiang Meets with the 50th Anniversary Visiting Delegation of the US China National Committee on Trade for Economic and Trade Cooperation | US China | Li Qiang
On the morning of August 21, Premier Li Qiang met with the visiting delegation of the US China Trade Commission to China, led by Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Committee on US China Trade, Ge Shibai, at the Great Hall of the People.
Li Qiang congratulates the US China Trade Commission on its 50th anniversary and appreciates its positive contributions to enhancing the level of economic and trade cooperation between the two countries, developing China US relations, and enhancing the well-being of the two peoples. He pointed out that as the largest developing and developed countries, China and the United States have much greater economic complementarity than competitiveness. The essence of China US economic relations is mutual benefit and win-win, with deep economic integration between the two countries. Maintaining good economic and trade cooperation and relations between the two countries is in line with the common interests of both sides. Currently, China US relations and economic and trade cooperation are facing some difficulties, which require both sides to show sincerity, move towards each other, and work together. China and the United States can fully develop together and work together to make greater contributions to the beautiful future of all humanity.
Li Qiang pointed out that the door to China's opening up will not be closed, but will only open wider and wider. This is not only our own strategic choice, but also in line with the historical laws of economic globalization. China is willing to work with the United States to demonstrate its great responsibility, jointly maintain international trade rules, and ensure the stability of the global industrial and supply chains. China is comprehensively promoting high-quality development and Chinese path to modernization. China's big market contains huge growth potential and opportunities. China will continue to expand market access, comprehensively optimize the business environment, implement national treatment for foreign-funded enterprises, maintain and promote fair competition, and protect enterprise property rights and entrepreneur rights in accordance with the law. I hope that the US China Trade Commission will continue to serve as a good ambassador for friendly cooperation between China and the United States, playing a more important role in deepening exchanges and cooperation between enterprises of the two countries and promoting stable and far-reaching bilateral relations.
Ge Shibai and other US officials stated that the US China Trade Commission supports the development of healthy and stable bilateral relations and economic and trade cooperation between the two countries, injecting tremendous impetus into the economic growth of the US and China. The Chinese market is crucial for enhancing the competitiveness of American companies. The US China Trade Commission welcomes the Chinese government's signal of deepening reform and opening up, and hopes that the US China relationship can further develop, bringing greater certainty to the business communities of both countries.
Wu Zhenglong attended the meeting.
