BEIJING, February 20 (Xinhua) -- China and United States on Saturday agreed to work more closely in dealing with the global financial crisis, climate change, energy, environment and other issues of common concern.
The agreement came out of the talks between Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Saturday morning.
This marked the beginning of face-to-face diplomacy between the two countries since the Obama administration took office last month.
"During the talks, both sides reached a principled agreement on establishing a strategic and economic dialogue mechanism. Detailed arrangements will be worked out later," according to a statement released by the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
