During a meeting with Chinese State Councilor Dai Bingguo in the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, Clinton spoke highly of the rapid development of Sino-U.S. ties in the past 30 years.

She said the United States and China have realized the importance of bilateral cooperation, which is full of opportunities.
