CHICAGO, Aug. 11 -- "I am basically an optimist," Leo Melamed, chairman emeritus of global markets company CME Group, told Xinhua in a recent interview about his view of the U.S.-China relationship.
Noting that the two biggest economies are influential on the direction of other economies in the world, Melamed said he "look(s) at the arguments and discussions between our two nations in the light of optimism."
"There are issues and some of them are difficult to overcome. But I remain an optimist that in the long run we will overcome them," he stressed.
Melamed said there are many areas in which China and the United States can cooperate, and the first one is environment.
"The Chinese and many Americans feel that we should be doing more to preserve the nature of this planet Earth and overcome some of the erosions that are occurring ... because it's in every nation's benefit," he said.
"It is the duty of major nations like us to take that message and carry it and do something together," he added.
Health, Melamed said, is another area for cooperation, as China has made advancement in medical research fields in recent years.
"These are things that both nations can work together. It's for the benefit of the entire planet," he said.
As for the ongoing trade disputes between the two countries, Melamed said the United States has its own set of problems.
