Question: According to a news article run by The Wall Street Journal on January 22, China is pushing for a high-level meeting to ease tension with the United States, and Ambassador Cui Tiankai made proposals through letters on Mr. Yang Jiechi, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Director of the Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs, visiting the United States. Can you confirm this?

Answer: This is not true. The Chinese side did not write any letters as mentioned in the report. It is hoped that the media outlet carrying this report will respect the facts and cover China-US relations in an objective and responsible way.
