BEIJING: The second session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, China’s top political advisory body, started its closing meeting on Sunday morning.
Xi Jinping and other Chinese leaders attended the meeting at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
A resolution on a work report of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC National Committee, a resolution on a report on how the proposals from political advisors have been handled since the previous annual session, a report on the examination of new proposals, and a political resolution on the second session of the 14th CPPCC National Committee were approved at the meeting. Wang Huning, chairman of the CPPCC National Committee, delivered a speech at the meeting.
The United States should translate its commitment into real action and work with China to build a stable, healthy and sustainable bilateral relationship, said the spokesman for the ongoing second session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
During an exclusive interview with China Daily, Liu Jieyi, the spokesman, said that to ensure the bilateral ties stay on the right course, the two countries should work with each other on the basis of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation. “It takes two to tango. The United States should see the value of working with China and change their perception of China as a strategic rival or whatever negative definition they have in mind or sometimes openly declared,” said Liu. “And of course, once our sovereignty, security and development interests are being harmed, we certainly will firmly protect our interests. This goes without saying,” he added.
Liu’s previous positions include China’s permanent representative to the United Nations and head of the Taiwan Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, which underscore his expertise in navigating complex international waters and cross-Strait relations. –The Daily Mail-China Daily news exchange item
