On June 17, 2026, Chinese Ambassador to the United States Xie Feng delivered a speech at the U.S.-China Business Council (USCBC) Gala 2026, encouraging the U.S. business community to act on the new vision for the bilateral relationship.

Ambassador Xie saidthat building a constructive China-U.S. relationship of strategic stability is not a slogan. It should be turned into united action across all sectors in both countries, to keep expanding the list of cooperation while shortening the list of problems, and resolutely remove disruptions and obstacles. The Taiwan question, democracy and human rights, China’s path and system, and China’s development right are four red lines for China, which should not be challenged, still less crossed. When China’s Labubus do not have to carry the label of being products of so-called “forced labor”, and when American businesses can freely choose their Chinese partners without worrying about being scrutinized on the pretext of national security, then the new vision for the bilateral relationship is truly becoming reality, and both our peoples can get real and tangible benefits from it.
