President Xi Jinping sent a message of congratulation on Commemoration of the 55th Anniversary of China-U.S. “Ping-Pong Diplomacy” and Launch of China-U.S. Youth Sports Exchange Events. President Xi pointed out that fifty-five years ago, Chinese and American elder statesmen, with exceptional political wisdom and strategic foresight, reopened the door for friendly exchanges between our two peoples, and created the remarkable story of “a small ball moving the globe”. Today, young Chinese and Americans meet together to renew this bond and launch a series of sports exchange events that will contribute meaningfully to the cause of China-U.S. friendship. He expressed the hope that all sectors of Chinese and American societies, especially the younger generation, will draw wisdom and strength from history, enhance mutual understanding and affinity through exchange and cooperation, and make progress hand-in-hand by learning from each other. It was also hoped that the two peoples will not only develop a stronger bond, but also make new contributions to the steady, sound and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations.
