0 
Beijing hopes Washington can set a timetable to end its restrictions on high-tech exports to China, Vice Premier Wang Qishan said in a speech at the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue in Beijing on Monday.
"We are glad to see that the US has promised to ease its export restrictions on high-tech products and open up the American market for Chinese investors," said Wang, who is also a special representative of Chinese President Hu Jintao at the annual dialogue.
"Through this dialogue, we hope to learn about, in detail, the US timetable and road map" on its removal of high-tech trade curbs, equal treatment of Chinese investors in the US as well as an acknowledgement of China’s market economy status, Wang said.
"We hope the two sides could, in line with our consensus of anti-protectionism in tackling the financial crisis, bring forward concrete policies to stifle trade protectionism in all forms," added Wang.
Wang also said that the US-China talks aim to promote strong and sustainable global growth as the two economies enjoy dynamic growth.
