According to Chinese media reports, U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen has arrived in Guangzhou and will visit China from today to next Tuesday (9th).
After Yellen arrives in Guangzhou, she will hold talks with Vice Prime Minister Ho Lifeng and Guangdong Governor Wang Weizhong respectively. On Saturday afternoon, he will transfer to Beijing to meet with Chinese financial officials, economists and student representatives. After Yellen arrived in Guangzhou, she chose the local representative Dazhong Restaurant just like she did last time in Beijing. For her first meal in Guangzhou, she chose the local time-honored Taotaoju.
Yellen earlier said on her way to China that it is important for the United States and China to maintain open communication channels. This trip will focus on developing healthy economic relations with China. She reiterated that the United States does not want to decouple from the Chinese economy and believes that both sides can benefit from trade and investment. But it must be done on a level playing field.
