Dr. Henry Kissinger, former Secretary of State of the United States, wrote a letter to Mr. Wang Chao, President of the Chinese People’s Institute of Foreign Affairs (CPIFA), on March 23, in which he thanked President Wang for writing to brief him on China’s efforts of fighting against the COVID-19, and expressed his appreciation for what China has done in the battle. Dr. Kissinger said “…how much I respect the dedication and skill with which your government has managed it. Indeed, we can learn from you, as we are now in an earlier phase of a similar crisis. Hopefully we will learn from this the importance of common solutions to a variety of issues around the world. My conviction about that has not been altered but has indeed been strengthened”.
