Business chiefs urge better ties

Both sides see opportunities flowing from B&R Initiative

Business leaders from China and the United States attending a top level forum in Beijing on Wednesday urged the two countries to engage in full cooperation under the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative and multilateral financial institutions, such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank.

The US Chamber of Commerce and the China Center for International Economic Exchanges - the business thinktank of the Chinese government - will organize a meeting within the next 12 months to promote to US companies the projects related to the initiative.
