Foreign media are reporting that a senior Chinese diplomatic official said he hopes U.S. companies will push their governments to lift tariffs imposed on China, stop “decoupling” and interrupting supplies, and stop cracking down on Chinese companies.
Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng made the remarks during an April 22 meeting with top executives of major U.S. companies.
According to a press release on the Ministry’s website, Xie Feng said U.S. companies are stakeholders in U.S.-China cooperation. He also pointed out that it is too negative to define the U.S.-China relationship in terms of “competition, cooperation and confrontation,” and that U.S.-China competition should be benign, a track and field race where you catch up with me, not a gladiatorial race where you die and I live.
Executives from organizations and companies such as the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, General Motors, Ford Motor, Walt Disney, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and United Parcel attended the conference.
