МОСКВА, 03 августа 2021, Институт РУССТРАТ. The domestic central media did not pay much attention to the talks held on July 26 between representatives of the Chinese Foreign Ministry and the US State Department. One serious article can be found at Kommersant, and the second, more detailed, at the agency "Eurasian Strategies". However, none of them fully reflects the view of the past negotiations from the Chinese side, and it is from this point of view, in my opinion, that it is worth evaluating the prospects of US-Chinese relations.
