For his part, Obama said that his country welcomes China's rise and that cooperation between the two countries is good for the two sides and for the whole world.

"Along with our G20 partners, we've moved from the brink of catastrophe to the beginning of global economic recovery," he said, referring to the latest international financial crisis.

Noting that China is one of the top markets for U.S. exports, Obama said that annual U.S. exports to China in goods and services support "more than half a million American jobs."

He also lauded China's extraordinary economic growth that "has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty," and expressed satisfaction with the dozens of deals between the two sides that will increase U.S. exports "by more than 45 billion U.S. dollars."

The U.S. president also reaffirmed his country's commitment to the one-China policy.
