China and the United States began their fourth round of strategic dialogue
in Washington yesterday and both sides are expected to have an in-depth exchange
of views on bilateral relations and major international and regional issues of
mutual concern.
Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Dai Bingguo and US Deputy Secretary of State
John Negroponte co-chaired the two-day event.
This dialogue mechanism, which is built in accordance with the consensus
reached in 2004 between Chinese President Hu Jintao and US President George W.
Bush, is an important platform for the two countries to communicate on strategic
and political level. The previous dialogue was held in Beijing in November last
year.
