On October 21, 2025, Vice President Han Zheng met in Beijing with President of the Senate of the U.S. State of Oregon Rob Wagner.

Han Zheng noted that since the beginning of this year, President Xi Jinping and President Donald J. Trump have held three telephone conversations and reached a series of important common understandings. China and the United States share extensive common interests and enjoy broad prospects for cooperation. The two countries can and should become partners and friends. Han Zheng expressed the hope that the U.S. side will work with China in the same direction, uphold mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, and jointly find the right way for the two major countries to get along well with each other in the new era, so as to benefit both countries and the world. Noting that Oregon has long maintained friendly and cooperative relations with China, Han Zheng expressed the hope that Senate President Rob Wagner and the senators will continue to promote closer communication and exchanges between the two sides, deepen people-to-people friendship, and play an exemplary role in advancing sub-national cooperation between China and the United States.

Rob Wagner extended his best wishes for the success of the fourth plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. He said that U.S.-China cooperation at the sub-national level is of great importance. The Oregon State Legislature has passed a bill to continue strengthening its friendly exchanges and cooperation with various provinces and cities of China.
