BEIJING, June 30 (Xinhua)--China is active in extending relations between Chinese and U.S. armed forces and hopes for their healthy and stable development, vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) Xu Caihou said on Monday.
During talks with visiting former U.S. Secretary of Defense William Perry, Xu said relations between the forces had developed
smoothly, with new progress in high-level visits and
academic exchanges.
Xu spoke highly of the 8th seminar on Sino-U.S. security attended by Perry and his
delegation,
saying it served as a platform for the two sides to discuss major security issues.
Xu also briefed Perry on the stance on Taiwan.
The U.S. valued the development of relations between U.S. and Chinese armed forces, said Perry, who served as Secretary of Defense under President Bill Clinton from February 1994 to January 1997.
He suggested the two armed forces
enhance cooperation on humanitarian operations and peace-keeping.
