BEIJING, March 4 (Xinhua) — As two major countries, China and the United States should respect each other, coexist peacefully and pursue win-win cooperation, Lou Qingjian, spokesperson for the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC), said Wednesday at a press conference held a day before the opening of the session.
Noting that head-of-state diplomacy plays an indispensable strategic guiding role in China-US relations, Lou Qinjian said that if both sides faithfully implement the important agreements reached by the leaders of the two countries, adhere to an approach based on equality, mutual respect and mutual benefit, and work to expand the list of cooperation projects and reduce the list of negative issues, bilateral relations will be able to develop steadily.
China is willing to work with the US to strengthen contacts at all levels and through all channels, thereby creating a broader space for bilateral cooperation, Lou Qinjian said.
At the same time, China has its own principles and red lines and will continue to resolutely defend its sovereignty, security and development interests, he added.
Lou Qinjian, praising the exchanges between the NPC and the US Congress last year, said the NPC is willing to maintain contacts and exchanges with the US Congress and make legislative contributions to the steady and healthy development of China-US relations.
“We hope that the US Congress will take an objective and rational view of China and its development and will make more efforts to strengthen bilateral relations and friendship between our peoples,” he added. -0-
