China and the US Should Maintain and Strengthen People-to-People Exchanges

China-US strategic competition has intensified in recent years,and anti-China forces in the US have preached the“clash of civilizations”thesis and launched an ideological containment against China.They have also set up barriers to people-to-people exchanges between the two countries in an attempt to constitute a decoupling.Such actions have undermined the normal people-to-people exchanges between the two sides,aggravated bilateral relations,and made the two peoples perceive each other more negatively.In the face of US provocations,China firmly opposes and strongly condemns the restrictions imposed by American anti-China forces on bilateral people-to-people exchanges.Meanwhile,China will maintain its strategic focus,and,under the guidance of the Xi Jinping Thought on Diplomacy,continue to promote normal people-topeople exchanges between the two countries and strive to develop China-US relations featuring coordination,cooperation and stability.
