Talks between Chinese Vice Premier Liu He and US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen in Zurich this week would have lasted longer if the US official hadn’t needed to catch a flight, according to a post on Yuyuan Tantian, a social media account affiliated with state broadcaster CCTV.

The meeting, held on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, lasted about three hours, longer than scheduled, according to the report.

The report said that it was noticeable that the US side had taken a proactive attitude by granting a longer time for reporters to film the opening remarks.

The two officials had professional, in-depth, candid and pragmatic exchanges on the global and bilateral macroeconomic and financial situation and on tackling common global challenges, China’s official Xinhua News Agency had said earlier.
