On the eve of President Xi Jinping's state visit to the US, the general station's “High-End Interview” interviewed Tan Sen, chairman of the US-China Trade National Committee. The US-China Trade National Committee is a private trade organization specially established by the US side before the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the US. Today, members include about 270 US companies operating in China, covering many fields such as technology, finance, manufacturing, and healthcare. When asked, “What does a stable, healthy, and sustainable Sino-US relationship mean to the world?” At the time, Tan Sen gave his answer. General station reporter He Yanke: From a broader perspective, what does a stable, healthy, and sustainable Sino-US relationship mean to the world? Tan Sen, Chairman of the US-China Trade National Committee: In the past, there was very little intersection with national security on issues related to the US and China. Later, almost all fields were classified as national security issues. Tourism, trade, personnel exchanges, and education were all treated as national security issues. That would be excessive. We are working hard to push the two sides to reach a consensus on a reasonable balance and clarify what is true national security and what is not. We also clearly told both governments that the definition of national security should be narrow and transparent; this is also a way to establish mutual trust. So what does this mean for the world? I sincerely believe that a stable relationship between the US and China will not only benefit both the US and China, but will also bring certainty to countries around the world. Whether it is ASEAN countries, global southern countries, European countries, or Latin American countries, countries can clearly understand how to deal with the US and China. After all, no country wants to stand on the sidelines, and no country wants to put itself in one side's camp; all countries have interests in both the US and China. Maintaining a stable and predictable relationship between the US and China allows countries to independently pursue their own interests and fully reap the dividends brought by deep contacts with the US and China.
