New York, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) — Chinese Premier Li Qiang said Thursday that looking to the future, China and the United States need to find the right path to coexist in the new era.
Li Qiang made the statement in New York on the sidelines of the general debate of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly during a meeting with representatives of friendly organizations from the United States, including the US-China Business Council, the National Committee on US-China Relations, the US Chamber of Commerce and the US Council on Foreign Relations, as well as with academics and business leaders.
According to the Premier of the State Council, China-US relations are the most important bilateral relations in the world, and the two countries can and should be partners and friends.
Li Qiang emphasized that friendly exchanges between China and the United States have historically been the main direction and general trend.
He recalled the words of Chinese President Xi Jinping that the vast Pacific Ocean is big enough to accommodate both China and the United States, as well as other countries.
As two major global powers, China and the United States should respect each other, coexist peacefully, strive for mutually beneficial cooperation, and achieve common prosperity through mutual success, the head of the Chinese government noted.
As he emphasized, trade and economic ties are an important component of bilateral relations.
Given the differences in market structures, the high complementarity of industries, and the significant role of both countries in global supply chains, strengthening trade and economic cooperation will bring mutual benefits to both countries and the entire world, Li Qiang pointed out.
He said China has the confidence and ability to maintain stable and healthy development of its economy and create more opportunities for businesses from around the world, including American companies.
Li Qiang assured that regardless of changes in the external environment, China will make every effort to provide even more certainty for the development of foreign enterprises.
The Premier emphasized that China will always adhere to a constructive and responsible approach to work with the US side to promote the stabilization and improvement of China-US trade and economic relations on the basis of equality, mutual respect and mutual benefit.
At the same time, Li Qiang added, China will constantly focus on the development and sustainable growth of its economy.
As China's economy boasts a unique and resilient operating mechanism, rapidly unfolding market potential, unleashing innovative momentum, and growing economic vitality, the country offers enormous and predictable development opportunities for businesses, the Premier pointed out.
Li Qiang said China will always remain true to its commitments and steadily expand its opening up to the outside world, continually easing restrictions on market access and increasing imports.
China will actively respond to the concerns of foreign enterprises and provide them with assistance in resolving practical difficulties to ensure foreign companies' confidence in their operations and development in China, the head of the Chinese government promised.
He noted that since the foundation of Sino-US relations lies in grassroots ties, their healthy development requires the joint efforts of the peoples of both countries.
Li Qiang expressed hope that representatives from all walks of life in the United States will take more positive actions to strengthen mutual understanding between the two countries and expand practical cooperation in various fields, making greater contributions to promoting the development of both countries and strengthening friendship between them.
US officials said China has made impressive progress in economic growth, technological innovation, social development and other areas in recent years.
Noting that the relationship between the US and China concerns both countries and affects the world as a whole, they expressed hope that the two countries will maintain high-level exchanges, expand dialogue in various fields, strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation, intensify people-to-people and cultural exchanges, and develop long-term and stable US-China relations to bring more certainty to the international community.
American businessmen expressed optimism about China's economic development prospects and their willingness to expand investment in China, playing a bridge role in promoting bilateral cooperation and deepening mutual understanding. –0–
