Print Edition
Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to the United States next week will hammer home his view that peace will bring mutual benefit, while conflict will harm both sides, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said yesterday.
Xi is paying a state visit to the US from September 22 to 25, the foreign ministry announced yesterday.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama will host Xi and his wife Peng Liyuan at an official state dinner on the evening of September 25.
“President Xi’s visit will present an opportunity to expand US-China cooperation on a range of global, regional, and bilateral issues of mutual interest, while also enabling President Obama and President Xi to address areas of disagreement constructively,” the White House said in a statement.
Obama made a similar trip to China in November 2014.
Xi’s visit will focus on boosting trust, and he will try to resolve US worries that China and the US contradict each other when dealing with issues such as international relations and the Asia-Pacific order, Wang said at the ministry’s Lanting Forum, a platform for exchanges between government, business, academia, media and the public.
“This visit is in the interest of friendly cooperation between China and the United States, and is also in the interest of world peace and development. It will surely be a milestone for China-US relations,” Wang said.
“Warming up to American people will be a feature for Xi’s upcoming visit,” Wang said, adding that Xi will talk with entrepreneurs, teachers and students. A series of measures to promote civilian exchanges between the two countries will be announced during the visit.
Extensive cooperation agreements will be reached in the fields of finance and trade, energy, climate change, environmental protection, science and technology, agriculture, law enforcement, aviation and infrastructure, he said.
“We hope that the two sides will reaffirm each one’s own development direction and strategic view, increasing common interest and responsibility to safeguard world peace, stability and development,” Wang said.
He said both countries have the resources and the need to realize positive exchanges and cooperation concerning the Asia-Pacific region.
He said China’s Belt and Road Initiative aims to offer new opportunities for the common development of various countries while the establishment of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank is expected to improve the current financial system and overcome financial bottlenecks.
Xi will also visit UN headquarters in New York to attend summits from September 26 to 28 commemorating the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the United Nations.
