The Chinese and U.S. delegations held talks on economic and trade issues on Sunday at the OECD headquarters in Paris.
The Chinese delegation, now on a trip to the French capital from Saturday to Tuesday, is led by Vice Premier He Lifeng, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee.
According to a China Global Television Network (CGTN) reporter on site, the closed-door meeting on the first day of talks lasted about 6.5 hours and that details are yet to be disclosed. The two delegations left the venue after the meeting.
