In the aftermath of high-level trade talks that took place in Sweden, China has expressed its hope for the United States to collaborate in promoting sustainable development of bilateral ties. The announcement was made on Wednesday by a spokesperson from the Chinese foreign ministry.
Guo Jiakun, the ministry spokesperson, emphasized the need for both countries to 'enhance consensus' and 'reduce misunderstanding' during his regular press briefing. He refrained from providing further details about the Stockholm talks that concluded on Tuesday.
