China-US cultural dialogue set for Washington on Sept 28
The first round of the China-US Social and Cultural Dialogue will be held in Washington on Sept 28. Vice-Premier Liu Yandong and US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will co-chair the dialogue, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang announced on Monday.
China and the United States will exchange in-depth views on people-to-people exchanges and cooperation. China is willing to work with the US to achieve positive results from the dialogue, Lu said.
China and the US have agreed to establish four high-level dialogue mechanisms on diplomacy and security, the economy, social and cultural issues, and law enforcement and cybersecurity, according to the consensus reached by President Xi Jinping and his US counterpart Donald Trump during their meeting in April at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
The first round of the diplomatic and security dialogue, as well as the economic dialogue took place in June and July separately.
