When the two sides treat each other with sincerity and good faith, we will be able to lengthen the list of cooperation, and shorten the list of problems. The year of 2026 can be a landmark year of sound, steady and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations.

FM Wang Yi: Neither #China & the US can remodel the other, but we can choose how we want to engage, to commit to a spirit of mutual respect, to hold the bottom line of peaceful coexistence, to strive for the prospect of win-win cooperation.

This year is a “big year” for China-U.S. relations. The agenda of high-level exchanges is already on the table. China is always committed and open. It is critical that the U.S. side work in the same direction.

FM Wang Yi: Since last year, relations between China and European countries have been regaining strength. Two-way trade topped US$1 trillion, over two million European tourists traveled to China under visa-free policies, and, European leaders paid a number of visits. Interactions are more active. Facts have shown that China-Europe relations draw stability from shared interests and certainty from mutually beneficial partnerships. We are glad to see European friends stepping out of the “small attic” of protectionism and walking into the “fitness club” of the Chinese market to build their strength and competitiveness.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi：We will make it more convenient and comfortable for foreigners to travel in China.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi：While you may be facing a world of chaos and turbulence, you have behind you a motherland as firm as a rock. Strengthening the system of safety protection for Chinese nationals and interests overseas is the unremitting pursuit of the Chinese foreign service in the new era.
