BEIJING (Global Times/ANN): After a sharp and confrontational opening as the first talks under the Biden administration between top Chinese and US diplomats concluded in Alaska on Friday local time, several experts and business representatives from China and the US at a high-profile forum on Saturday said they expected more communication and a better dialogue mechanism on bilateral trade -- a sector where the world's largest two economies share massive mutual interests despite their major disputes on political and security issues.
During a session about the future of China-US economic and trade agreements at the China Development Forum 2021 on Saturday, Susan A. Thornton, senior fellow at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center, said that the bilateral trade and economic relationship is the biggest area of positive and constructive cooperation.
