Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan said here Wednesday that China and the United States should seek common ground and shelve differences in building up the constructive and cooperative relations between the two countries.
To develop the constructive and cooperative relations, Tang said, the two countries should share common interests and views and reserve differences.
The two countries should treat each other sincerely, Tang told a press conference of the Fifth Session of the Ninth National People's Congress (NPC).
During the meeting between Chinese President Jiang Zemin and U. S. President George W. Bush in February, the two sides reached common understanding after exchanging views and carrying out consultations on the basis of mutual benefit and reciprocity, Tang said.
