California Gov. Gavin Newsom met with China's seniormost diplomat Wang Yi on Wednesday and displayed a brief moment of friendliness that stands in sharp contrast to the dialogue between the U.S. and China in recent years. The governor is on a weeklong tour of China where he will push for climate cooperation. Newsom's trip as governor, once considered routine, is drawing attention as it comes after years of heightening tensions between the U.S. and China.
Wang also struck an optimistic tone, saying “As Chairman Xi has said the foundation of China and US relations are among the people, I think your visit to China this time lays a solid foundation, spreads hope, and opens up the future.” Wang, head of the Communist party’s office of foreign affairs, also said he knows Newsom's trip attracted plenty of critics, but that he views the trip positively.
