"..From the jus' so's ya know Departmemt.." NEW YORK (AP) — Defense Secretary William Cohen says the only way for the United States to repair tattered ties with China is through closer cooperation. U.S.-China relations have deteriorated in recent months following accusations of Chinese spying and the U.S. bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia. Trade talks aimed at allowing China's entry into the World Trade Organization froze following the May 7 bombing, which the U.S. has insisted was accidental. "There's a great deal that we have to do to mend the relationship between the United States and China,'' Cohen said Wednesday in a speech to the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations. "We have no alternative but to engage China in a constructive, pragmatic fashion, and that is in our mutual national security interest.'' The White House is turning its attention to China as President Clinton prepares to meet with Chinese President Jiang Zemin Saturday in New Zealand during at a summit of Pacific Rim leaders. The meeting will be their first in 15 months. Clinton economic adviser Gene Sperling said Wednesday that the administration hopes the discussions between the two presidents "would at least lead to a resumption of negotiations and momentum'' on trade. Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, also speaking at the dinner Wednesday, said the United States must be careful not to let recent tensions blow up into a major clash. "A Cold War between China and the United States,'' Kissinger said, would be "a classic no-win situation in which our policy would lose flexibility and China's progress will be hampered.''
