China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi, in a meeting with U.S. National Security Adviser Sullivan, emphasized the importance of treating each other as equals for the smooth development of China-US interactions, says Chinese state media, APA reports.
Wang Yi advised the U.S. not to judge China based on the path it has traveled nor to view China through the lens of a hegemonic strong country.
Wang Yi called for the U.S. to cease suppressing China in areas such as trade, commerce, science, and technology, and to stop jeopardizing China's legitimate interests.
He criticized protectionism under the guise of 'overcapacity', stating it would jeopardize global green development and impact world economic growth.
