BEIJING: The United States will press China to resume cooperation on fighting cyberespionage to ensure an orderly cyber environment, a senior US official said on Tuesday ahead of annual talks between the world's two largest economies this week. 

The talks, which start on Wednesday, will be led by US Secretary of State John Kerry and Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, likely taking in China's currency, North Korea's nuclear programme and escalating tensions between China and neighbours in the South China Sea and with Japan in the East China Sea.
