Raimondo will visit China to meet with its political leadership and US entrepreneurs in the country from August 27-30.
"China will express its position to the US on trade and economic issues of concern, at the same time, we hope to discuss in detail with the US the elimination of trade and economic discrepancies and the development of practical cooperation," Shu said at a briefing.
The latest trade clash between China and the US took place in late May, when China said US semiconductor manufacturer Micron had failed a cybersecurity check, therefore, critical Chinese information infrastructure should stop purchasing the company's products. US lawmakers, in response, reportedly urged the US Department of Commerce to blacklist China’s integrated semiconductor manufacturer ChangXin Memory Technologies.
In April, the US reportedly asked South Korea to restrict its semiconductor exports to China after it launched a security probe into Micron.
