/ world today news/ Yesterday, the Chinese Vice Premier and chief negotiator for trade and economic issues, He Lifeng, left for San Francisco. There he will have talks with American representatives on macroeconomic and other issues. According to the official information, Beijing will insist that Washington “pay enough attention to China’s concerns and show real actions, which is a prerequisite for exchanges between the two countries.”
In an article in the Washington Post, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen wrote that during her visit to China in July, she explained that US policy was based on national security, not goals of gaining advantage or pressure on others countries. “We must not be obsessed with competing with Beijing so that it defines us,” Yellen wrote.
