Ahead of Xi’s ‘historic milestone’ US visit, a fentanyl goodwill gesture from China

Under the strategic guidance of both leaders, the “giant ship” of China-US relations would continue to “break waves and sail ahead” along a trajectory of “mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation”, Xie told state news agency Xinhua. The interview was published on Wednesday, hours before Xi’s scheduled departure for the US.
The two leaders had maintained “frequent, candid, and strategic communication on major global issues”, Xie said, noting that Xi’s trip would be the second such top-level exchange in just over four months, following Trump’s state visit in May.
Head-of-state diplomacy provided “an important strategic safeguard for maintaining the overall dynamic stability of China-US relations amid turbulent winds and rough seas”, Xie said.
