Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met at the Munich Security Conference on Friday, Beijing’s state media reported.
Xinhua reported that the hotly anticipated meeting took place on the sidelines of the summit, amid a relative thaw in bilateral ties.
Earlier on Friday, US Vice-President Kamala Harris told the Munich event that the US had “responsibly managed competition” with China, “standing up to Beijing when necessary, and also working together when it serves our interests”.
