Common interests between China, US outweigh differences


China and the United States should work together to expand cooperation and manage differences to promote a coordinative, cooperative and stable bilateral relationship, Guo Weimin, spokesman for the second session of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference said on Saturday.
Common interests and the need for cooperation between China and the US far outweigh differences, Guo said at a news conference.
It has been proved that the two countries will gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation, he said, adding that cooperation is the best choice for both.
Sino-US relations are at a crucial stage, Guo said.
Maintaining a sound and stable development of bilateral relations, which requires joint efforts by the two countries, is in line with the fundamental interests of both countries and their people, as well as the common expectation of the international community, he added.
