President Trump has not yet received our confirmation! US President Trump just stated that he expects China and the US to reach an agreement on trade issues at the APEC Summit next week, and said that the first meeting between the Chinese and US leaders may not necessarily take place. In response to this, our Foreign Ministry has made a statement! On October 22, our Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated that the leadership diplomacy plays an irreplaceable strategic guiding role in Sino-US relations, and the leaders of the two countries maintain close exchanges and communication.
Regarding the specific issue you mentioned, I currently have no information to provide. Obviously, Trump has repeatedly mentioned whether the leaders of China and the US will meet. However, what is the result? From the response of our Foreign Ministry, it is clear that the US has not yet received our confirmation. What does this indicate? This indicates that in our view, the US need not constantly mention the meeting between the leaders of China and the US, nor should it assume that we must meet President Trump.
In fact, if both sides of China and the US move towards each other, the leaders of China and the US will inevitably meet. If the US still hopes to extort and coerce, to obtain a one-sided agreement that benefits the US, the leaders of China and the US are almost impossible to meet. The Sino-US relationship is the most important bilateral relationship in the world, and the way for China and the US to interact is equality, respect, and mutual benefit. Therefore, when the US deals with us, it should show itself as reliable, rather than repeatedly炒作 topics, which is not beneficial for Sino-US interactions.
