Janet Yellen, U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, who visited China, met with Premier Li Chang on the 7th and expressed her desire to engage in healthy competition with China.

According to major foreign media on the day, Secretary Yellen said during her afternoon meeting with Premier Li, "The United States seeks healthy competition based on fair rules that benefit both countries, rather than a winner-takes-all approach."

She added, "I hope this visit will accelerate more regular communication channels between the two largest economic powers in the world," emphasizing, "Both countries have an obligation to show leadership in addressing global challenges such as climate change."

In particular, Secretary Yellen explained, "While the United States needs to pursue targeted actions to protect national security in certain situations, disagreements over these moves should not jeopardize the broader relationship."

Secretary Yellen reiterated, "Disagreements should not lead to misunderstandings or unnecessarily worsen the economic and financial relations between the two countries," expressing hope for expanded communication with China.
