STOCKHOLM, July 29 (Xinhua) — China and the United States should continuously consolidate consensus, reduce misunderstandings, enhance cooperation, and deepen dialogue and consultation to achieve new win-win results, Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng said in Stockholm on Tuesday.

According to him, stable, healthy and sustainable trade and economic relations between China and the United States are conducive not only to the development goals of the two countries, but also to the growth and stability of the entire world economy.

He Lifeng made these statements during a new round of China-US trade and economic talks held in Stockholm from July 28 to 29, in which Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamison Greer participated on the American side.

During the talks, the two sides had a frank, in-depth and constructive exchange of views on China-US trade and economic relations, macroeconomic policies and other important topics of mutual interest.

The parties also reviewed and approved the implementation of the agreements reached following the trade negotiations in Geneva, as well as the framework agreement reached during the negotiations in London.

Based on the consensus reached during the talks, the parties will continue to promote a 90-day extension of the suspension of the 24 percent mirror tariffs of the US side and the countermeasures of the Chinese side.

As He Lifeng pointed out, the economic and trade teams of China and the United States should follow the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries during the telephone conversation on June 5, adhere to the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, respect each other's concerns, strengthen consensus and deepen mutual trust.

China's position on trade and economic relations with the United States is consistent, the Vice Premier of the State Council emphasized, noting that the essence of Chinese-American trade and economic relations is mutual benefit and win-win.

According to him, the parties have broad common interests and ample space for cooperation in the trade and economic sphere, cooperation between China and the United States benefits both sides, while confrontation harms both of them.

He Lifeng called on the two sides to continue to adhere to the important consensus reached by the two leaders during the phone conversation and make full use of the mechanism of China-US economic and trade consultations.

Representatives of the American side stated that stable US-Chinese trade and economic relations are of great importance for the economies of both countries and the world as a whole.

They expressed the US readiness to work with the Chinese side to further resolve differences in the trade and economic sphere through the consultation mechanism, achieve new results in the negotiations and promote further stabilization of bilateral trade and economic relations. –0–

NEW YORK, July 29 (Xinhua) — The International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Tuesday raised its forecast for global economic growth in 2025 to 3 percent, up 0.2 percentage points from its April forecast, according to an updated version of the IMF's World Economic Outlook report.

According to the updated report, emerging market and developing economies are expected to grow by 4.1 percent in 2025, up 0.4 percentage points from the April forecast.

For countries with developed economies, the forecast has been revised upward from 1.4 percent to 1.5 percent.

In particular, expected economic growth figures have been raised for the US, the Eurozone, Japan, the UK, Canada, China, India, Brazil, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Nigeria.

As noted in the document, the large-scale upward revision of the annual forecast is due to “a more active than expected advance increase in imports in anticipation of higher customs duties; lower average tariff rates in the United States than were announced in April; improved financial conditions, including due to the weakening of the US dollar; and the expansion of fiscal stimulus measures in a number of major countries.” –0–
