Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in New York on Tuesday, that while his country has no intention of unseating the U.S. as the world leader, China expects America to “remove all unreasonable restrictions.”
His remarks come as the world's two largest economies are locked in escalating trade tensions centered on U.S. complaints about its trade deficit with China, and lack of equal access to the local market.
Wang said he hopes the next round of trade negotiations would "produce a positive outcome" and emphasized the business opportunity for America in working with China.
