o commemorate the 35th anniversary of China-US diplomatic relations, the CPAFFC and the Harvard Kennedy School co-hosted the “New Model of China-US Major-country Relationship and the US-China Public Policy Forum” in Cambridge, Massachusetts, from March 23 to 25. The participants included Zhao Qizheng, Dean of the School of Journalism and Communication of Renmin University, Li Xiaolin, President of the CPAFFC, Zhang Xinsheng, President of the China Education Association for International Exchange, Sun Guoxiang, PRC Consul General in New York, Joseph Nye, former Dean of the Kennedy School, Larry Summers, former US Treasury Secretary, Drew Faust, President of Harvard University and Kevin Rudd, former Prime Minister of Australia. They held in-depth discussions and exchanges on a wide-range of issues including politics, finance and trade, environment, science and technology.
Both sides agreed a healthy and stable China-US relationship serves the interests of both countries as well as the wider world. The two countries could certainly avoid the historical trap of confrontation between an emerging and established economy due to growing mutual interests and closer interdependence. They are not only engaged in bilateral trade and people-to-people exchanges, but also have close cooperation in international and regional affairs such as counter-terrorism, environmental protection, infectious disease prevention, etc., and face the same challenges that cannot be resolved without close cooperation rather than confrontation.
The two sides also discussed on the definition of each other’s core interests as well as the meaning and the concrete ways for building China-US major-country relationship.
