August 31, Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun presided over a regular press conference.
Bloomberg reporter asked that U.S. Treasury Secretary Bernsant said the world cannot allow China to have a trade surplus of $1.2 trillion, and that the G20 should reexamine its trade terms with China. What is the comment from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on this?
Guo Jiaqun said that the essence of Sino-US economic and trade relations is mutual benefit and win-win results. The Chinese side never deliberately pursues a trade surplus, and opposes all forms of unilateral tariff measures. We adhere to opening up at a high level, using China's vast market to provide new opportunities for all parties, including the United States.
"The United States and China should jointly implement the important consensus reached by the two countries' leaders, through equal, respectful, mutually beneficial dialogue to resolve related issues, and maintain the good momentum in the economic and trade field." Guo Jia Kun said.
