In commenting bilateral ties, President Xi Jinping called on both sides to effectively manage their differences and respect each other's core interests.
Xi recalled his meetings with U.S. President Barack Obama over recent years and the many agreements they had reached, including building a new model of major-country relations.
"I cherish the working relationship between President Obama and I. We met several times over the past three years and will meet again at the G20 Summit in Hangzhou. We've reached many important consensuses over a new model of major-country relations and worked together to boost the development of China-US ties in the right direction."
