Chinese foreign Minister Wang Yi delivered a speech on Monday morning, calling on U.S. President @JoeBiden's administration to "reopen dialogue" between Washington and #Beijing and restore bilateral relationships. reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Wang said the Trump administration’s actions to suppress and contain China inflicted immeasurable harm, and called on Washington to remove tariffs on Chinese goods and abandon what he said was an irrational suppression of the Chinese tech sector.
He urged Washington to respect China’s core interests, stop interfering in Beijing’s internal affairs and stop “conniving” with separatist forces for Taiwan’s independence.
“Over the past few years, the United States basically cut off bilateral dialogue at all levels,” Wang said in prepared remarks translated into English. "We stand ready to have candid communication with the U.S. side, and engage in dialogues aimed at solving problems.”
Wang pointed to a recent call between Chinese President Xi Jinping and Biden as a positive step.
