BEIJING - Before U.S. President Donald Trump began high-level talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Thursday, he was welcomed by a children’s choir voicing the hopes of many people for the historic visit.
“Join hands, join hands for solidarity.
Join hands, join hands for peace.
Join hands, join hands for the world,” the children sang.
The cheerful song and the deals worth 253.5 billion U.S. dollars signed by Chinese and U.S. companies during Trump’s visit have sent the world an inspiring message: the relations between the world’s two biggest economies have come to a new historic starting point.
The three-day visit has affirmed that the two countries have chosen cooperation rather than confrontation.
It’s also a good news for the world as stable China-U.S. relations will benefit not only the well-being of both peoples, but also world peace, prosperity and stability.
Frictions and differences remain, but in-depth and thorough dialogues are likely to prevail, as both leaders have decided to steer bilateral ties through head-of-state diplomacy. (Xinhua)
