He Lifeng, Politburo member and director of the Office of the Central Financial
and Economic Affairs Commission, met Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio in
Beijing on the 14th. He said this year is the opening year of the 15th Five-Year
Plan, China’s economy is continuing to shift toward higher-quality growth, and
Xi’s US visit was a complete success with significant implications for bilateral
ties. Under the leaders’ strategic consensus, Sino‑US economic and trade
consultations have produced a series of mutually beneficial, balanced outcomes
that support stability and growth for both economies and the global economy.
Dalio said he is positive on China’s economic outlook and is willing to help
promote US‑China economic and trade cooperation.
