In order to thank people for their attention and support over the years, and to further promote the friendly relationship, exchange among people between China and the US, CASIC organised the "CASIC 2020 Appreciation ". On January 15, China and the US signed the first-phase trade agreement. As President Sha Hailin said, this is an important step for China and the US to resolve their economic and trade differences. It not only lays a good foundation for the follow-up work, but also promotes the return of the economic and trade relations between the two countries to the right track and encourages the stability and development of the global economy. This is good for China, the US, and the world.



The event began on the banks of the beautiful Huangpu River and closed in warmth and laughter, implying that China-US relations will continue to move forward with the joint efforts of the government and non-governmental parties, and welcome a better tomorrow!
