Mr. Henry Paulson, former Secretary of Treasury of the United States, wrote a letter to Mr. Wang Chao, President of the Chinese People’s Institute of Foreign Affairs (CPIFA), on March 29, in which he thanked President Wang for his letter of good wishes on the COVID-19 outbreak in America, and expressed his appreciation for what China has done in the battle against the virus. Mr. Paulson said, “The Chinese People united to defeat the virus and set a very good example for the world. Now America needs to do the same and I am optimistic that we will do so”, “…the corona virus shines a bright light on how inter-connected our world is and how important it is for our two countries to work together”.
