According to comprehensive news from WorldWay Investment: On July 14, Chinese President Xi Jinping spoke on the phone with U.S. President Obama at 14:00 local time in Fortaleza, Brazil.
Xi Jinping stated that in March of this year, we had a productive meeting in The Hague, Netherlands, and agreed to continue advancing the construction of a new type of major power relationship between China and the United States. Recently, both sides have engaged in intensive communication and jointly promoted the sixth round of the China-U.S. Strategic and Economic Dialogue and the fifth round of high-level consultations on cultural exchanges, achieving positive results and injecting new momentum into China-U.S. relations. President Obama reiterated in his written remarks to the dialogue and consultations that the United States welcomes a stable, peaceful, and prosperous China and is committed to building a new type of major power relationship with China. I appreciate this.
Xi Jinping emphasized that China has always viewed and handled its relationship with the United States from a strategic and long-term perspective, and is willing to work with the U.S. side to make unremitting efforts to build a new type of major power relationship. In the next stage, both sides should continue to move towards each other, promote negotiations on a bilateral investment agreement, strengthen coordination and cooperation on important international and regional issues, including addressing climate change, and handle differences in a mutually respectful and constructive manner to ensure that the relationship between the two countries continues to develop in a positive direction.
Obama stated that the sixth round of the China-U.S. Strategic and Economic Dialogue and the fifth round of high-level consultations on cultural exchanges were fruitful and successful, proving that both countries are committed to building a positive, secure, and prosperous future. I appreciate President Xi Jinping's remarks on the proposal to build a new type of major power relationship between the U.S. and China during the joint opening ceremony of the dialogue and consultations. I reiterate that the U.S. side is committed to working with China to build a new type of major power relationship, strengthen practical cooperation, and constructively manage differences, making cooperation the mainstream of the bilateral relationship. The U.S. hopes to continue advancing cooperation in areas such as trade, energy, climate change, and relevant regional hotspot issues. I look forward to visiting Beijing again in November this year to attend the informal meeting of APEC leaders and meet with President Xi Jinping, and I hope both teams will prepare seriously from now on to promote more concrete progress in our cooperation by that time.
