"As two major countries in the world, whether China and the United States can find a right way to get along with each other [is key for] world peace and development and the future of humanity," Xi said in letter to the participants of the annual gala dinner hosted by the National Committee on US-China Relations, as read by Chinese Ambassador to the US Xie Feng on Tuesday.
China is ready to promote mutually beneficial relations with the US based on principles of mutual respect, while resolving bilateral issues in an appropriate way and take joint efforts to tackle global challenges, the Chinese leader added.
On Monday, the US State Department said that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken would host Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Washington from October 26-28 for talks on an array of issues.
