CHINA: Beijing envoy warns of 'destructive forces' trying to undermine

U.S.-China ties (RTRS)

- China's envoy to the United States on Wednesday said the two countries were

trying to resolve their differences over trade, but he warned of forces that he

said were trying to drive a wedge between the two, without providing any

details. Ambassador Cui Tiankai, speaking at a dinner hosted by the US-China

Business Council, said U.S.-Chinese ties were at a critical crossroads due to

trade frictions, but it was possible to return to a better path. "At the same

time, we must be alert that some destructive forces are taking advantage of the

ongoing trade friction (through) extreme rhetoric such as 'decoupling,' the 'new

Cold War,' and 'clash of civilizations,'" Cui said.
