Musk: China and U.S. are like ‘conjoined twins’

Meeting1 Comments

In his first visit to China since January 2020, before the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, Musk meets with Foreign Minister Qin Gang. Musk compares US-China interests to conjoined twins and says Tesla opposes “decoupling” of the world’s two biggest economies. Gang told Musk that the two countries should “avoid dangerous driving” and:

keep the steering wheel in the right direction of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation…A healthy, stable and constructive China-US relationship is not only beneficial to both countries, but also to the world.

Gang also said that China’s development is an opportunity for the world.

The more we can work together the better the world will be. I know that it is taught in China that each person has to look out for themselves and not help others, however I think that will change as the technology changes, Now I think we need to work as closely together as possible.
