During the dialogue on Tuesday the two sides exchanged views on issues such as outer space policy, bilateral¹ cooperation on space safety and multilateral space initiatives.

 

The discussions were "pragmatic, in-depth and fruitful," according to the Chinese delegation².

 

The two sides agreed to hold the next dialogue before the end of the year.
