特朗普表示：中美关系很重要，愿意加强合作

WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump said on Friday that US-China relations are very important, and that the United States is willing to strengthen cooperation with China to promote bilateral ties.

华盛顿消息，2月9日，美国总统特朗普表示，中美关系非常重要，美国愿意与中国加强合作，不断发展双边关系。

Trump made the remarks during his meeting with visiting Chinese State Councilor Yang Jiechi in the Oval Office of the White House.

特朗普在白宫椭圆形办公室会见到访的中国国务委员杨洁篪时发表了上述言论。

Saying his state visit to China last November was a big success, Trump agreed that the two sides should fully implement the consensus reached by Chinese President Xi Jinping and himself during their meeting in Beijing.

他表示，去年十一月他对中国的访问非常成功，特朗普同意双方应充分发扬他与习近平书记在北京会面期间达成的共识。

Yang, who was on a two-day visit to Washington, also met US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Thursday.

2月8日，在访问华盛顿的两天期间，杨洁篪也会见了美国国务卿蒂勒森。

After a year of steady development in China-US ties, boosted by successful face-to-face meetings and frequent phone conversations between Xi and Trump, bilateral relations have been facing several challenges since the end of 2017 after some worrisome moves on Washington’s part.

中美关系一年以来稳步发展，得益于成功的面对面会晤，以及习近平与特朗普之间频繁的电话交谈，自2017年底以来，中美关系一直面临着一些挑战，此前华盛顿方面采取的一些举措也很令人担忧。
