Sino-US summit cements stable relations: Macau media
23/4/2006 9:37
The meeting between Chinese President Hu Jintao and his US counterpart
George W. Bush was hailed in Macau on Saturday by Macau media as cementing the
stable relations between the two countries. Macau Daily News, the leading
local Chinese newspaper, said in its editorial that the summit held on Thursday
helped the two nations reach consensus in many issues of mutual
interests. The newspaper quoted President Hu as saying that his tour was
aimed at expanding dialogue, increasing mutual understanding, strengthen
confidence building and deepening cooperation with the United States. Hu
received "warm and candid welcome" on his tour, an indicator that his aims have
been well achieved, said the editorial. The so called "China Threat" will not
be the mainstream in US political and economic circles, as the world sole super
power has learned to treat China as a partner, it said. "The Sino-US
relations are mature enough, as the two sides are able to openly discuss on
their frictions," Bush was cited. The two countries vowed the efforts to
solve the issues of trade imbalance, intellectual property protection and
nuclear proliferation, according to the newspaper. It hailed that the two
sides will be progressing in building "a more constructive relation." Other
major newspapers in Macau Saturday also dedicated many of their pages to Hu's
four-day US trip, which ended on Friday.
