On November 16, Chinese President Xi Jinping met with U.S. President Joe Biden in Lima, Peru. The two leaders held a candid, profound, and constructive discussion, expressing their willingness to stay in contact. They emphasized the importance of strategic communication, regular contact between diplomatic and security teams, and dialogue mechanisms on military relations, economic and trade ties, and financial issues.
In light of this significant meeting, CGTN spoke with Breno Giovanni Adaid Castro, a professor of business management at the Higher Education Institute of Brasilia. Professor Castro shared his insights on the implications of the meeting between the Chinese and U.S. leaders.
Castro highlighted that both China and the U.S. are world powers, and enhanced cooperation between them would benefit all countries engaging in trade with these nations. “If the two sides can further improve and promote free trade, it will be good for all other countries seeking trade with them,” he said.
He emphasized that as major economic powers, China and the U.S. should respect each other and seek peaceful consultation in the face of differences. “They should create new opportunities for cooperation and development,” Castro noted, underscoring the global impact of their relationship.
The professor’s comments reflect a broader sentiment among international observers who see the collaboration between China and the U.S. as crucial for global economic stability and growth. Enhanced dialogue and mutual respect between these nations could pave the way for resolving trade disputes and fostering a more collaborative international trade environment.
