The call comes roughly a week ahead of the Apec Economic Leaders' Meeting in China's Shenzhen where presidents Xi Jinping and Donald Trump are expected to meet.
The current momentum of stability in China-US relations has not come easily, Wang said, calling it "a rational choice made by the two major countries based on respective and shared interests," the Xinhua report said.
