China's Public Security Minister Guo Shengkun is in the United States to take part in the first high-level dialogue on cyber crime between the two countries, state media reported.During his visit, which is due to end on Thursday, Guo will meet Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson, Xinhua state news agency said on Sunday.
Cyber security has long been an irritant in relations between China and the United States, despite robust economic ties worth $590 billion in two-way trade last year.
