According to the Web site of Bloomberg News Agency, on 27 October, United States Treasury Secretary Janet Jerome said that high-ranking officials from the two largest economies in the world, the United States and China, had little contact in about two years and that, after a “dangerous” period, US-China relations were now in a more active state.
In an event held at Bloomberg, Jerome 26 said: “In about two years, there was little high-level contact between China and the United States during the epidemic. I think it's a dangerous situation.” She said that the situation was particularly dangerous when differences arose.
It was reported that about a year ago, the United States dollar met first in Bali, Indonesia, and this phase was concluded. Since then, several United States cabinet ministers, including Jerome, have visited China. The Chinese Foreign Minister is also visiting the United States.
“We need to cooperate on global issues. Debt relief is one of the problems, and climate change is another, but there are many examples.”
It was reported that Jerome had visited China in July this year, the first time since she had served as United States Treasury Secretary. At that time, she stated that her mission was to resume contacts between Washington and Beijing.
