Abstract
With the development of globalization, more countries have begun to pay more attention to the international community. As two important countries that dominate global political and economic development, China and the United States have a great influence on the international community. Therefore, this study focuses on the current situation of Sino-U.S. relations and its outlook for the future. The study analyses the evolution of the relationship between China and the US and explores the economic and political factors, and ideologies that influence this evolution. As for the future strategies the two countries should take towards the international community, this article argues that the two sides could improve relations by resuming cooperation economically and strengthening consensus on global issues. In terms of international status, China could make up for the lack of discourse power by cultivating diplomatic talents, while the US could turn its attention to multilateral cooperation instead of sticking to America First.
