Chinese President Xi Jinping's trip to the US and the UN has drawn attention not only in China, but also in rest of the world. Here we bring together comments by global social-media users.

Cyber security

The two countries used to voice merely their own demands when coming to the issue of cyber security. Their talks were in different channels. Now they have expanded their agreement concerning this issue.

-Teng Jianqun, director of the American Studies Department of the China Institute of International Studies

I feel that the best way to promote the cause of world peace is for both nations to come to an agreement about cyber security.

It is only natural for nations to want to protect their people and interests against those of other nations, and China has every right to protect herself against US aggressions.

However, China will never reach a stable and productive peace with the United States unless both sides are willing to make compromises.

-Caleb Johnson, a student currently working toward a degree in Computer Forensics who spent five years living in China.

"This (the Sino-US consensus on jointly fighting cybercrime) is a very important agreement that has the potential to end a series of frictions between the US and China."

-James Lewis, director of the US Center for Strategic and International Studies' Strategic Technologies Program

"Not all cyberspace issues are areas of tension, and some of these issues may present opportunities for cooperative effort. One example is that both nations have a common interest in protecting the stability of the international financial system."

-Herbert Lin, cyberpolicy expert at Stanford University's Hoover Institution

I'm sure that President Xi and President Obama need to go through some difficult issues such as cyber security, anti-corruption campaigns, the South China Sea, and so forth.

But I am confident that the commonalities between both nations overwhelm these little differences, especially after he jokingly stressed that the anti-corruption campaign in China was not a power struggle, not House of Cards in the speech he gave in Washington state.

It's high time, therefore, that China and the US increased the number and widened the scope of dialogues to combat corruption on the global level, and deepened their cooperation mechanism in accordance with the Convention, because these would be to their mutual benefit.

-Shao Shaping, a professor of law at Renmin University of China

I have been impressed with President Xi's initiatives to end government corruption. I've also been impressed with his efforts to cooperate with other nations. I hope the American people recognize these strides instead of relying on their previous judgments of China and its leaders.
