On May 9, 2024, Chinese Ambassador to the United States Xie Feng met with a delegation from the American Chamber of Commerce in China (AmCham China). The two sides had an in-depth and constructive exchange of views on strengthening China-U.S. economic cooperation and people-to-people exchanges, and the development of American companies in China.

Ambassador Xie elaborated on China’s policy stance on China-U.S. relations and economic cooperation. He said that the important consensus reached by the two Presidents at the San Francisco summit has charted the course for the development of China-U.S. relations. We need to follow the three principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, value peace, prioritize stability and uphold credibility, so as to ensure the sound, stable and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations.

Ambassador Xie briefed the delegation on the continued recovery and improvement of the Chinese economy, pointing out that China’s determination to expand high-standard opening-up is unswerving, that new quality productive forces are taking shape at a faster pace, and that Chinese modernization will provide historical opportunities for countries around the world, including the United States.

Ambassador Xie noted that the China-U.S. relationship still faces many challenges, and there remains a long way to go to stabilize and improve the relationship. It is hoped that friends from the business community will continue to serve as a bridge of friendship and mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries, and contribute their best efforts to stabilize and develop China-U.S. relations and deepen and expand exchanges and cooperation between the two countries, so as to help truly stabilize, improve, and move forward the bilateral relationship.
