Kissinger also said that a confrontation "would be very unfortunate for both sides", rejecting the notion of US-China in "tipping point" and stressed the two are obligated to work together.
Kissinger commented on President Xi's quest for a "new type of major country relationship". He said it was necessary for both countries to attach great importance to bilateral ties and keep communications open for each other.
"China will be growing, whether we accept it or don't accept it." Kissinger said, urging others who resist to admitting China's uprising to face the reality. He suggested the US president to "talk honestly to the Chinese, to tell them what their concerns are, to learn Chinese concerns."
"I am very hopeful that President Xi's visit to US will show progress in dialogue," Kissinger said.
