Recalling Trump\u2019s visit to China in May, he said the two presidents\u2019 reciprocal state visits within six months marked a notable moment in bilateral relations.<\/p>\n<p>Xi said the leaders had reached a common understanding on a range of issues during his visit. This had provided further direction for what he described as a constructive relationship of strategic stability between China and the United States. He called on the two countries to manage competition and differences while finding new ways to cooperate.<\/p>\n<p>Xi also referred to more than two centuries of trade between the two countries, cooperation between Chinese and American people during the Second World War, and the role of Ping-Pong Diplomacy in the normalisation of relations. People-to-people exchanges had strengthened bilateral ties, he said, urging China and the United States to act as responsible major countries.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also delivered remarks at the dinner.
