Cook made his first in-person trip to China since the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020.
Tim Cook touted Apple’s close ties with China during a high-profile weekend trip to the country – even as rising tensions between the US and Beijing prompt increased scrutiny of businesses like fellow tech giant TikTok.
Cook was reportedly greeted with applause as he took the stage at the state-sponsored China Development Forum in Beijing in what was his first in-person trip to the country since the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020. “This has been a symbiotic kind of relationship that I think we both enjoyed,” Cook said while discussing Apple’s growth in China, according to Bloomberg.
The trip represented the latest step in a high-wire act for Cook, who is aiming to maintain Apple’s operations in China without drawing the ire of US lawmakers increasingly wary of Beijing’s influence over US companies.
