Chinese Vice Premier Han Zheng expressed his willingness for cooperation with the US on tackling climate change in a video conference with US climate envoy John Kerry on Friday, which Chinese experts believed sent a message that China expects the US will put aside political mindsets and promote cooperation on climate with sincerity. 

The video meeting was held amid Kerry’s four-day trip to China, during which he is also set to meet with Xie Zhenhua, China's special envoy for climate change affairs.

China attaches great importance to dialogue and cooperation with the US on climate change and expects that the US will uphold the Paris Agreement and fulfill its due responsibilities, Han Zheng, who is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, was quoted as saying in a report by Xinhua News Agency on Saturday.
