On July 11, 2023, Vice President Han Zheng met with U.S. representatives attending the Fourteenth Annual U.S.-China CEO and Former Senior Officials' Dialogue in Beijing.

Han Zheng said that China and the United States are the top two largest economies in the world and China-U.S. relations are the most important bilateral relations in the world. To promote the sound and steady growth of China-U.S. relations, the key is to follow through on the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation put forward by President Xi Jinping. Competition is everywhere in today's world, but it should be healthy competition that promotes win-win results, rather than a zero-sum game that enlarges one's own gain at the expense of others. China will stay committed to advancing reform and opening up. Companies from the United States and other countries are welcome to deeply explore the Chinese market and contribute their part to maintaining the stability and smoothness of global industrial and supply chains and promoting world economic growth.

The U.S. representatives said that the United States and China have close economic and trade ties, and the current difficulties and uncertainties are worrying. The U.S. business community is ready to continuously     expand cooperation with China, actively play their role as a bridge between the two sides, and promote the sound and steady development of U.S.-China relations.
