?Maybe Xi will broaden the punishment against North Korea somewhat, at the cost of further damaging relations with North Korea,? Mr.
Shi said.
Mr.
Tillerson was almost certainly sterner in private, according to the diplomat.
The relationship between China and the United States was guided by ?nonconflict, nonconfrontation, mutual respect and win-win cooperation,? Mr.
Tillerson said at a news conference with Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
Hours before the meeting between Mr.
Tillerson and Mr.
Xi, North Korea stuck its nose under the tent, announcing that it had tested a new high-thrust missile engine that analysts said could be used in an intercontinental missile.
The best chance for cooperation on North Korea might come with China deciding to more dutifully enforce some economic sanctions, Mr.
Shi said.
