According to the preset schedule, a joint opening session will be held in the Ronald Reagan Building on Monday morning, during which US President Barack Obama will deliver a speech.

After the dialogue, Obama is expected to meet with the Chinese delegation, and Chinese and US officials will hold a joint press conference and respective briefings to introduce the outcome. During their stay in Washington D.C., Chinese officials will also meet with Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, former US Treasure Secretary Henry Paulson, World Bank Chief Economist Justin Yifu Lin, congressmen and other officials.

Vice Premier Wang Qishan will deliver a speech at a banquet hosted on Tuesday evening by National Council for US-China Trade and National Committee on US-China Relations.

The scheduled high-level meeting, the first of its kind between the world's biggest developing country and biggest developed country, is a reincarnation of a biannual Strategic Economic Dialogue set up by the two countries in 2006 and a vice- ministerial Strategic Dialogue in 2005.

The new mechanism was jointly launched by Chinese President Hu Jintao and his American counterpart Barack Obama during their meeting on the sidelines of the G20 summit in London on April 1.
