Yang Jiechi, director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the Communist Party of China's Central Committee, and Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi are scheduled to meet with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in Anchorage, Alaska on Thursday and Friday. This is the first high-level meeting between senior diplomats from both countries under the Joe Biden presidency.

Two experts shared their views with China Daily on what people can expect from the 2+2 meeting in Alaska, saying both sides need to take the opportunity to exchange ideas and cooperation, rather than confrontation, serve both countries' interests.
