The closed-door meeting in Switzerland between US national security adviser Jake Sullivan and China's top diplomat, Yang Jiechi, was their first face-to-face encounter since March.
The White House said Sullivan raised concerns about Chinese actions in the South China Sea (called the East Sea in Vietnam), as well as Hong Kong and Xinjiang issues.
At the end of the day, however, both Beijing and Washington said the talks, which lasted six hours, were constructive and candid.
