Xi Jinping on the phone with US President Biden

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 28. President Xi Jinping had a telephone conversation with US President Biden on the evening of July 28. The two heads of state had frank communication and exchanges on China-US relations and issues of mutual concern.
Xi Jinping pointed out that at present, the two trends of turbulence and change in the world continue to evolve, and the two major deficits of development and security continue to emerge. In the face of a world of turmoil, the international community and people of all countries expect China and the United States to play a leading role in maintaining world peace and security and promoting global development and prosperity. This is the responsibility of the two major powers, China and the United States.
Xi Jinping stressed that viewing and defining Sino-US relations from the perspective of strategic competition and regarding China as the most important opponent and the most severe long-term challenge is a misjudgment of Sino-US relations and a misreading of China's development, which will mislead the people of the two countries and the international community. The two sides should maintain communication at all levels, make good use of existing communication channels, and promote bilateral cooperation. The current global economic situation is full of challenges. China and the United States should maintain communication on major issues such as macroeconomic policy coordination, maintaining the stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain, and ensuring global energy and food security. Decoupling and chain breaking in violation of the law will not help boost the US economy, and will also make the world economy more fragile. The two sides should promote the de-ignition and de-escalation of regional hotspot issues, help the world get rid of the neo-crowning epidemic as soon as possible, get out of the economic stagflation and the risk of recession, and maintain the international system with the United Nations at its core and the international order based on international law.
Xi Jinping focused on China's principled position on the Taiwan issue. Xi Jinping emphasized that the history of the Taiwan issue is clear, and the fact and status quo that both sides of the strait belong to one China are clear. The three Sino-US joint communiques are the political commitments of both sides, and the one-China principle is the political foundation of Sino-US relations. We resolutely oppose "Taiwan independence" secession and interference by external forces, and will never leave any room for "Taiwan independence" forces in any form. The position of the Chinese Government and the Chinese people on the question of Taiwan is consistent, and it is the firm will of more than 1.4 billion Chinese people to resolutely safeguard China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity. Public opinion cannot be violated, and playing with fire means self-immolation. I hope the US side will see this clearly. the us side should match words with deeds, abide by the one-china principle, and implement the three sino-us joint communiques.
Biden said that the world today is in a critical period. US-China cooperation is beneficial not only to the people of the two countries, but also to the people of all countries. The United States hopes to maintain a smooth dialogue with China, enhance mutual understanding, avoid misunderstanding and misjudgment, seek cooperation in areas where interests blend, and properly manage differences. I would like to reiterate that the one-China policy of the United States has not changed and will not change, and the United States does not support Taiwan's "independence".
The two heads of state also exchanged views on the Ukraine crisis, and Xi Jinping reiterated China's principled position.
The two heads of state believed that the call was frank and in-depth, agreed to maintain contact, and instructed the working teams of both sides to continue communication and cooperation for this purpose.
