This week in Washington, D.C., at a time when Sino-US talks are stalled, a group of Chinese and American experts carved out space for meaningful dialogue.
Based in the Chinese mainland, the Center for China and Globalization hosted its annual meeting, bringing together former diplomats, policy makers, and academics. In an atmosphere of paused tariff negotiations, participants highlighted the power of face-to-face conversations to build trust and explore shared interests.
Over two days, delegates discussed ways to revive trade talks, boost technological collaboration, and tackle global challenges. Attendees stressed that people-to-people exchanges can serve as a critical bridge, even when formal channels are on hold.
For young global citizens, entrepreneurs, and changemakers, the event offers a reminder that sustained dialogue can spark fresh ideas and partnerships. As the Chinese mainland and the US navigate a complex relationship, meetings like this one keep the door open for cooperation beyond political headwinds.
