In the session “Sino-U.S. Relations,” experts held in-depth dialogues on the current status of relations between the two countries, the impact of U.S. domestic politics on future ties, and the risk of decoupling in the economic, trade, and scientific and technological fields. Both sides emphasized the need to actively maintain and stabilize bilateral relations and grasp the cooperation opportunities on major global issues from the perspective of the fundamental comprehensive development of the country and its citizens, instead of responding to strategic issues with tactical thinking.
