China's Foreign Ministry Says Trump's Visit to China 'Injected a Sense of Stability' Into World Affairs [U.S.-China Summit]

\r\n
[Financial News] China's Foreign Ministry has officially assessed U.S. President Donald Trump's visit to China as having "deepened mutual understanding and trust between the two countries and injected a positive sense of stability into world affairs."
On the 15th, The Associated Press (AP), citing reports from Chinese state media, said a Foreign Ministry spokesperson stressed at a briefing that the latest U.S.-China summit was more than a simple meeting and served as an important turning point in easing international instability.
China said the successive meetings between President Xi Jinping and President Trump produced better-than-expected results. The spokesperson said the two leaders' meeting enhanced mutual understanding and solidified strategic trust, adding that it would soon lead to expanded practical cooperation.
In particular, both sides agreed that each other's major concerns should be handled appropriately.
The Foreign Ministry spokesperson added that the two leaders reached an important consensus to strengthen communication and coordination on international and regional issues.
One of the biggest outcomes of the summit was the introduction of a new diplomatic framework called "constructive strategic stability."
The framework focuses on managing differences between the two countries efficiently and limiting excessive competition, with the ultimate goal of maintaining global peace and stability.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry said the framework would serve as a compass for future U.S.-China relations. It appears to reflect a willingness to contain sources of conflict within manageable limits rather than eliminate them entirely, in order to prevent a rupture in bilateral ties.
The announcement came as trade disputes and geopolitical tensions between the United States and China continue to intensify, drawing attention to whether the two countries may shift toward a mode of "coexistence amid conflict" in the future.
