China has reiterated its position on developing China-U.S. relations through enhancing communication and dialog.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin also says China will state its stand on the US election results in accordance with international practice.

"We have noticed that Mr. Biden has declared victory of the election. We understand the result of the presidential election will be determined following laws and procedures of the United States."

He also calls on both sides to manage their differences, expand cooperation, and promote sound and steady development of the bilateral relationship.

The Chinese government says it will take measures to strengthen the supervision of imported cold-chain foods to minimize the risk of imported COVID-19 cases.

Complete disinfection of the outer packaging of those products, as well as transportation equipment, must be carried out, while COVID-19 tests will be conducted at ports to block the transmission of the novel coronavirus.

The food testing positive for COVID-19 will be destroyed.

Logistics firms are required to strictly check customs clearance documents for imported cold-chain foods, while workers with direct contact with those products must take protective measures.

All those products entering the market must also be traceable.

The COVID-19 count in the United States has surpassed ten million, including over 230-thousand deaths.

Texas has become the U.S. state with the most cases, standing at over 990-thousand, followed by California and Florida.

The country remains the worst hit nation by the pandemic, with the largest number of confirmed cases and deaths in the world.

Democrat Joe Biden, who has declared victory in the recent presidential election, is calling for unity to achieve the shared goal of defeating the virus.

"As we work toward a safe and effective vaccine, we know the single most effective thing we can do to stop the spread of COVID is wear a mask. The head of the CDC warned this fall that for the foreseeable future, a mask remains the most potent weapon against the virus. Today's news does not change that urgent reality."

He says a vaccine, even if it's approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, will not be widely available for many months.

US Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, has tested positive for the coronavirus.

Carson received his test Monday morning at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Carson was also reported to be at the White House for the election night party, an event also attended by White House chief of staff Mark Meadows — who tested positive for COVID-19 last week.

US President Donald Trump has fired defense secretary Mark Esper.

Trump tweeted on Monday that Esper has been terminated and thanked him for his service.

He said National Counter-terrorism Director Christopher Miller will be the Pentagon's acting chief.

The announcement comes days after a spokesperson dismissed reports that Esper was planning to resign.

Esper served as secretary of the US Army before leading the Department of Defense in 2019.

During his tenure, Esper was at odds with Trump on several issues, including on his threats to deploy active-duty troops to quell nationwide protests.

The European Union will impose tariffs on four billion U.S. dollars worth of U.S. imports starting today.

The announcement comes following what the bloc describes as "a lack of progress" from the U.S. on resolving a dispute over aircraft subsidies.

The World Trade Organization ruled last month that the U.S. did not comply with international rules when providing subsidies to Boeing.

Six Chinese auto parts suppliers are planning to invest a combined 5 billion yuan, or roughly 700 million U.S. dollars in Chengdu.

The investment will be used to produce seats, battery packs, bumpers and other parts for Volvo.

Volvo currently has manufacturing plants in many cities across China, including Chengdu.

The company says more than half of its auto parts suppliers are based in the eastern parts of the country.

It says it hopes more suppliers can move closer to the plants in Chengdu and Daqing to localize the production of vehicles.

The Swedish company was acquired by Chinese automaker Geely in 2010.

中方重申了通过加强沟通和对话发展中美关系的立场。

他还呼吁双方管控分歧，拓展合作，推动中美关系健康稳定发展。

中国政府表示，将采取措施加强对进口冷链食品的监管，最大限度地降低新冠病毒输入风险。

对进口冷链货品外包装和运输设备进行全面消毒，并在口岸对其进行新冠肺炎检测，防止新型冠状病毒传播。

新冠肺炎检测呈阳性的食品将被销毁。

对于进口冷链食品，物流企业要严格查验清关单证，直接接触冷链食品的工人必须采取防护措施。

所有进入市场的产品也必须是可追踪的。

美国新冠肺炎确诊病例已破千万例，其中死亡病例超过23万例。

得克萨斯州的病例超过99万例，成为美国病例最多的州，其次是加利福尼亚州和佛罗里达州。

美国仍是受影响影响最严重的国家，确诊病例和死亡病例均居世界之首。

在最近举行的总统大选中宣布获胜的民主党人乔·拜登呼吁团结一致，以实现战胜病毒的共同目标。

“在我们努力研发安全有效的疫苗时，我们知道我们能做的最有效的一件事就是戴上口罩。美国疾病控制中心（简称CDC）负责人今年秋天警告称，在可预见的未来，口罩仍然是对抗病毒的最有力武器。今天的新闻并没有改变这个紧迫的现实。”

他表示，疫苗即使得到美国食品和药物管理局的批准，也不会在几个月内普及。

美国住房和城市发展部长、白宫冠状病毒工作组成员本·卡森博士的冠状病毒检测呈阳性。

卡森周一早上在沃尔特里德国家军事医疗中心接受了检测。

据报道，卡森也在白宫参加了选举夜派对，白宫办公厅主任马克·梅多斯也参加了这一活动，上周，他的新冠肺炎检测呈阳性。

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普解雇了国防部长马克·埃斯珀。

特朗普周一在推特上表示，埃斯珀已被解雇，并感谢了他的工作。

他表示，美国国家反恐主任克里斯托弗·米勒将担任代理国防部长。

就在几天前，一名发言人否认了埃斯珀计划辞职的报道。

在2019年领导国防部之前，埃斯珀曾担任美国陆军部长。

在任职期间，埃斯珀在多个问题上与特朗普意见相左，包括特朗普威胁部署现役部队平息全国抗议活动一中。

欧盟将从今天开始对价值40亿美元的美国进口商品征收关税。

六家中国汽车零部件供应商计划在成都投资50亿元人民币（约合7亿美元）。

这笔投资将用于为沃尔沃生产座椅、电池组、保险杠和其他零部件。

沃尔沃目前在中国多个城市都有制造厂，包括成都。

该公司表示，其一半以上的汽车零部件供应商位于中国东部地区。

该公司说，希望更多的供应商能搬到离成都和大庆工厂更近的地方，实现汽车生产的本地化。

这家瑞典公司在2010年被中国汽车制造商吉利收购。
