Chinese President Xi Jinping has said China and the United States can achieve mutual success and shared prosperity if both sides work together in the spirit of respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation.
Xi made the remarks during a phone conversation with US President Donald Trump on Friday, according to Chinese state news agency Xinhua.
The two leaders held candid and constructive discussions on bilateral ties and global issues, providing strategic guidance for the future development of relations.
Recalling that China and the US were allies during World War II, Xi said the Chinese people would never forget America’s support in the fight against Japanese aggression. He urged both sides to remember history, honour fallen heroes, and safeguard peace while pursuing common development.
Xi stressed that recent consultations between the two countries show that major issues can be managed for win-win outcomes. He cautioned the US against unilateral trade restrictions and called for a fair business environment for Chinese companies.
On the TikTok issue, Xi reiterated that solutions should follow market principles and mutual interests.
Trump praised China’s recent military parade, calling it “phenomenal and beautiful”. He said that US-China ties are the world’s most important bilateral relationship, adding that Washington seeks long-term cooperation, stronger trade links, and joint efforts to promote peace and stability.
