During a press conference, he emphasized the need for cooperation between the two nations, despite existing differences, and cautioned against hostility from the U.S. Wang pointed out that both countries share substantial common interests and have the potential to work together beneficially. This follows recent retaliatory trade measures from China against U.S. tariffs, indicating ongoing complexities in bilateral relations.
