(Beijing, May 7, Central News Agency) Ahead of the "Trump-Xi summit," Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met today in Beijing with a delegation of US senators led by Republican Senator Steve Daines, an ally of US President Trump. Daines stated that US-China relations need stability and mutual respect.
Trump is expected to visit China from the 14th to the 15th, where he will hold talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping. A week before the Trump-Xi summit, Reuters reported from Beijing that Wang Yi met with the US Senate delegation led by Daines at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on the 7th.
According to the report, Daines stated at the beginning of the meeting, "I firmly believe that we need to de-escalate (US-China relations), not decouple. We need stability and mutual respect."
Daines also mentioned that he hopes the US-China presidential meeting will bring passenger aircraft orders for Boeing, noting that "it has been nine years since China last purchased Boeing aircraft." At the same time, he warned of trade issues facing both countries.
The South China Morning Post earlier disclosed that a bipartisan US delegation led by Daines arrived in China on the 1st, consisting of five members, with an itinerary including Shanghai and Beijing.
