Asserting that US-China bilateral trade is "critical to the world economy", a top Chinese diplomat said Beijing has kept its door open for trade talks with the Trump administration, as the two top global economies are locked in a trade war.
Addressing a joint press conference here on Friday, Chinese State Councilor Yang Jiechi said, "According to the US-China Business Council, trade and economic relations with China help every American family save USD 850 annually and creates as many as six million jobs in this country."
Pompeo, while interacting with the media, said, "President Trump has made it clear that the US seeks a constructive and results-oriented relationship with China grounded in fairness, reciprocity and respect."
