Ding Xuexiang meets with former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Paulson.

Ding Xuexiang, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and Vice Premier of the State Council, met with former U.S. Treasury Secretary Paulson in Beijing on the 10th. Ding Xuexiang said that recently, President Xi Jinping had a phone call with President Trump and the two leaders reached important consensus. Strengthening cooperation between China and the United States based on mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation is conducive to the sustained and healthy development of China-U.S. relations, benefiting both countries and the world. China is the biggest certainty factor in the current turbulent world. It is hoped that the U.S. side will correctly view China's development, respect China's core interests and major concerns, develop mutually beneficial and stable economic and trade relations, and jointly shoulder the responsibilities of major countries. The establishment of the Paulson Foundation and American companies in China to carry out cooperation is welcomed to play a positive role in promoting mutual trust and cooperation between China and the United States. Paulson said that U.S.-China relations are crucial for global economic stability and development, and both sides should strengthen communication and enhance mutual trust. He is willing to play an active role in this.
