In response to the recent long-term renewal of the Sino US Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement between China and the United States, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said at a regular press conference on the 16th that the renewal of the Sino US Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement is an important measure to implement the consensus of the first meeting between China and the US dollar, which is in line with the interests of the people of both countries. He hoped that the United States can meet China head-on and effectively implement the agreement arrangements. Lin Jian introduced that representatives of the governments of China and the United States signed the Protocol on Amending and Extending the Agreement on Science and Technology Cooperation between the Two Governments in Beijing on December 13, 2024, extending the Agreement for 5 years from August 27, 2024. Lin Jian stated that the essence of China US technological cooperation is mutual benefit and win-win. The China US Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement is one of the first intergovernmental agreements signed after the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, providing strong support for China US scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation. The renewal of the China US Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement is an important measure to implement the consensus reached at the China US dollar summit. It is in line with the interests of the two peoples and the expectations of the international community. It will not only promote the scientific and technological progress and economic and social development of the two countries, but also promote the two sides to address common global challenges and enhance the well-being of people around the world. I hope the US can work together with China towards the same goal, effectively implement the agreement arrangements, and truly benefit both countries and the world from the achievements of China US scientific and technological cooperation Lin Jian said.
