China-U.S.
The China-U.S. relationship is critical to the wellbeing of the two peoples, and to the future of humanity and the world. No matter how the international landscape evolves, China always keeps its U.S. policy stable and consistent, and always handles the relationship with a sense of responsibility for history, for the people and for the world.
Our position is the three principles proposed by President Xi Jinping—mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation. They are a statement of the experiences and lessons of the 50-plus years of China-U.S. relations, and represent the right way for interactions between major countries.
