BEIJING - A senior Chinese legislator met with US House Democratic Caucus Chairman John Larson here on Friday to discuss bilateral ties.
As long as China and the United States continue candid dialogues and deep cooperation while accommodating each other's grave concerns and core interests, the two sides are bound to see advancements in their relationship, said Lu Yongxiang, vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.
"Enhancing Sino-US cooperation will exert profound impacts on regional and global peace, stability and prosperity," Lu said.
Larson, who is on an unofficial visit to China, agreed with Lu's view, saying that close mutual understanding is a cornerstone of bilateral ties.
During his tour, Larson also paid a visit to Pingquan county in North China's Hebei province to inaugurate a computer laboratory sponsored by UPS, a global logistics giant.
Larson was invited by the Chinese People's Institute of Foreign Affairs, and will conclude his six-day tour on Friday.
