According to the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, at the invitation of Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and director of the Office of the Central Foreign Affairs Commission, Jake Sullivan, Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, will visit China from August 27 to 29. This is Sullivan's first visit to China during the Biden administration and the first visit to China by the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs in eight years.

China invited Sullivan to visit China to hold a new round of strategic communication between China and the United States, and exchanged in-depth views on Sino-US relations, sensitive issues, and major international and regional hot issues, which attracted much attention. Professor Wu Xinbo, Dean of the Institute of International Studies and Director of the Center for American Studies at Fudan University, told The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) that "the meeting between Wang Yi and Sullivan was a routine strategic communication between China and the United States, and made bilateral arrangements for the "comparison" of Sino-US relations in the last few months of Biden's term."

In addition, according to information obtained by The Paper from diplomatic sources, Sullivan's schedule in Beijing will last at least until late afternoon or evening of the 29th, which also leaves room for the outside world to imagine whether there are more arrangements for Sullivan's visit.
