In recognition of the importance and complexity of the US-China economic relationship, in September 2006 President George W. Bush and President Hu Jintao created the “Strategic Economic Dialogue” between our countries. Their intent was not to replace the many economic dialogues already taking place, but to create a senior-level forum that was both comprehensive and strategic.
2006年9月，布什总统和胡锦涛主席确认美中经济关系的重要性和复杂性，并且在两国之间建立了“战略经济对话”制度。他们的意图并非是取代业已进行的其他经济对话制度，而是建立一个既全面又富有战略性的高级论坛。这一论坛还将通过在两国所面临的紧迫问题上展示出进展而建立互信。
