Davos (Switzerland) : A top aide to US President-elect Donald Trump highlighted the shared interests between China and the US during a public event at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in the Swiss ski resort here, a media report said on Wednesday.
"The Chinese and the Americans have a common cause," Anthony Scaramucci, Trump's assistant and director of public liaison, told WEF moderator Philipp Rosler on Tuesday, Xinhua news agency reported.
"I think we need to have a very strong bilateral relationship," he added.
Interviewed on the same day when President Xi Jinping gave a much-awaitted speech on the future of globalisation, Scaramucci said: "I respect China, I certainly respect the President of China, and we want to have a phenomenal relationship with the Chinese."
Xi on Tuesday called for joint efforts to chart the course of economic globalisation and forge new models of global growth, cooperation, governance and development.
