China drives John Kerry talks beyond climate change to US relations


US climate envoy John Kerry’s visit to China is expected to go beyond discussions about global warming, with Beijing making it clear it expects a broader discussion on the overall relations between the two countries.

Kerry held talks with vice-premier Han Zheng on Thursday morning and will meet this evening with State Councillor Yang Jiechi – China’s most senior diplomat – via videoconference, according to a source familiar with the arrangements who requested anonymity.
