BEIJING — Vice-Premier Wang Yang held phone conversations with US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross on the night of July 14, exchanging views on China-US economic relations and the first round of a comprehensive economic dialogue between the two countries.

During the upcoming dialogue which will be held on July 19 in Washington D.C. and co-chaired by Wang Yang, Steven Mnuchin, and Wilbur Ross, the two countries will exchange views on economic and trade issues of common concern.
