This year's CIIE marks the first time the United States has opened a national level exhibition hall. After the opening ceremony, the Deputy Deputy Deputy Secretary of the US Department of Agriculture, who was also the first to personally experience the CIIE, accepted an interview with CCTV reporters from the headquarters. He stated that the potential of the Chinese market is enormous, and promoting agricultural cooperation between the two countries is a "win-win" situation. Potatoes from Washington state, cheese from Wisconsin, and red wine from California made their debut at this year's CIIE. The US Food and Agriculture Museum, which covers an area of over 440 square meters, brought their CIIE products to 17 exhibitors. In addition, including soybeans, meat, almond wood, health products, etc., are also the products that the US exhibitors hope to promote at the CIIE. The continuous flow of people on the opening day of the museum made Hafmeister, the Deputy Deputy Deputy Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture, who participated in the CIIE for the first time, feel the enormous potential of American agricultural products in the Chinese market. CCTV reporter Huang Da: What factors led the US government to organize such a large-scale exhibition group to come to the CIIE? I think this is because China is a market with great potential. Now, China is the largest export market for American agricultural products, and we believe it can grow even more. So, we believe that encouraging official and commercial exchanges between both sides will help eliminate trade barriers, improve efficiency, and enhance understanding of available goods. At the same time, this helps our economy and provides China with high-quality and low-cost agricultural products. This is a win-win situation, and it is also the result we want to promote. Our two countries have benefited from it and should continue to do so. According to Hafmeister, China is the largest export destination for agricultural products from the United States, and many of the exhibitors who came this time have already conducted business in China. At the beginning of this year, Hafmeister came to Shanghai to participate in the exhibition. Through two firsthand experiences in the Chinese market, he saw the huge demand in the Chinese market and the real momentum of both sides in the field of commerce and trade. Deputy Deputy Deputy Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture, Hafmeister: We are very pleased to continue promoting exchanges, as it will bring benefits to both economies and also help us enhance understanding. I believe that exchanges between the United States and China can help other countries establish models that support open markets, eliminate trade barriers, lower food consumption prices, and eliminate technological barriers. If the United States and China can make progress in these areas, the entire world will benefit. Hafmeister first came to China in 1996 and hopes that in the future, both sides can engage in more effective exchanges in the commercial field. Hafmeister, Deputy Deputy Deputy Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture: Our increased understanding of each other will also help drive business development. Because this gives us both confidence in each other. We are also encouraged by the active participation of both parties, and I believe there will be a very fruitful interaction. The gains in the field of trade are enormous, thank you for showing us the contributions made by agriculture. (New News Agency)
