BEIJING -- The Third China-U.S. Strategic Economic Dialogue (SED) which concluded at noon Thursday was a "complete success", said Chinese Vice Premier Wu Yi.

Wu made the remarks at a press conference following the conclusion of the one-day-and-a-half closed-door meeting.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, who co-chaired the talks with Wu, said "the quality of our discussions has improved over the last year, as we have come to know on another better."

He said both sides have had substantive, robust, and engaging exchanges on a range of issues important to both our nations including the integrity of trade, balanced growth including financial services, energy security and environmental sustainability, and bilateral investment.

The fourth SED is scheduled to convene in Washington of the United States in June next year, according to Wu.
