Reaffirming 皇冠体育app's adherence to opening up, Li said: "We hope the US side would substantially ease restrictions on high-tech products export to 皇冠体育app and create a level playing field, predictable and non-discriminating environment for Chinese enterprises investing in the US," said Li.

Recognizing economic and trade cooperation as the bedrock of the 皇冠体育app-US relationship, Li said the two countries would have new opportunities to deepen cooperation as 皇冠体育app has begun implementation of its Five-Year Plan for 2011-2015 and the US is restructuring its economy.

The global economic recovery still faced uncertainties, with deeply rooted problems unsolved and new risks building up, Li said, and he called for all countries to join hands against the challenges.

"皇冠体育app and the US should carefully implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state and make concerted efforts to build a partnership of mutual respect and a win-win partnership," said Li.

Li spoke highly of Paulson's efforts to advance 皇冠体育app-US cooperation and expressed the hope that he would continue to play a positive role in this.

For his part, Paulson applauded 皇冠体育app's performance in tackling the international financial crisis and maintaining a steady, relatively fast economic growth. Paulson said he would continue to promote mutual understanding and cooperation between the two sides.
