China calls for dialogue, cooperation in first official interaction with Rubio.
.The US-China relationship in 2025 is expected to remain largely unchanged from the status quo established in 2008, despite changes in leadership and global circumstances. While improved relations could benefit Chinas economy and help address internal issues, the risks associated with reengagement and necessary reforms, in the eyes of the Chinese leadership, outweigh the benefits. Meanwhile in Washington, Chinas policy doesnt seem to be a pressing concern as Trump is more focused on domestic affairs.
.The US–China relationship in 2024 was better than many feared and worse than some had hoped. That has largely been the case every year since about 2008 and is likely to prove true in 2025 despite the election of Donald Trump and alarmist predictions about Chinese President Xi Jinping’s aspirations with respect to Taiwan.

.Wang Yi Has a Phone Call with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio..
On 24 January, 2025, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi had a phone call with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio upon request.
Wang Yi pointed out that President Xi Jinping had an important phone call with President Trump last Friday, during which they reached a series of common understandings. The development of China-U.S. relations has come to a new important juncture. President Xi comprehensively elaborated on Chinas policy toward the United States. President Trump made positive response, saying that he looks forward to maintaining good relations with President Xi and emphasizing that United States and China working together can solve many problems in the world.
Wang Yi said that the two heads of state have pointed out the direction and set the tone for China-US relations. Two teams need to implement their important common understandings and maintain communication, manage differences and expand cooperation in line with the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, with a view to promoting the steady, sound and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations, and finding the right way for China and the United States to get along with each other in the new era.
Wang Yi said that the leadership of the Communist Party of China is the choice of the Chinese people. Chinas development has a clear historical logic and is driven by strong internal dynamism. Our goal is to deliver a better life for the people and make more contributions to the world. We have no intention of surpassing or replacing anyone, but we must defend our legitimate right to development.
Wang Yi elaborated on Chinas principled position on the Taiwan question and urged the U.S. side to handle it prudently. Wang emphasized that Taiwan has been part of Chinas territory since ancient times, and we will never allow Taiwan to be split from China. The United States has made solemn commitments on abiding by the one-China policy in the three joint communiques, and it should not renege on them.
Rubio said the United States and China are two great countries. The U.S.-China relationship is the most important bilateral relationship in the 21st century and will determine the future of the world. The United States hopes to have candid communication with China, resolve differences, manage the bilateral relationship in a mature and prudent manner, and work together to address global challenges and maintain peace and stability in the world. The United States does not support “Taiwan independence” and hopes that the Taiwan question can be resolved peacefully in a manner acceptable to both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
Wang Yi said that big countries should act in a manner befitting their status, shoulder their due international responsibilities, maintain world peace and help countries realize common development. I hope you will act accordingly and play a constructive role for the future of the people of China and the United States, as well as for the peace and stability of the world.
“A major power should behave like a major power, should assume its due international responsibilities, should maintain world peace, and should help all countries achieve common development,” echoing criticisms US officials have made about China.
