Good Heavens! If that really happened, the US citizenry should be very very concerned!
According to rumors in the Bella Center, US President Barack Obama at about 11 PM, had impatiently asked to speak with Wen Jiabao in order to advance the discussion. But Obama had to wait. Wen, who, it was rumored, had rarely left his hotel room, could not be found. Finally, the US delegation located him in a room set aside for negotiations. A visibly furious Obama, according to reports, stormed into the room. "Are you now ready to talk with me, Premier Wen?" he was reported to have shouted. "Are you now ready? Premier Wen, are you now ready to talk with me?" What a scene for a US president.
Wen was not alone in the room at the time when Obama quite literally burst into the room, according to participants. At the time, the Premier was in a conversation with India's head of state, Mammohan Singh and South Africa's President Jacob Zuma. Suddenly the group saw itself forced into a conversation with the US president. |
