rich The socialist agenda was and always will be at the forefront of the clinton administration. Thursday 28 November 1996 Disney row threatens US-Chinese relationship By Hugh Davies in Washington It is an awkward time in Washington for such an impasse because President Clinton is determined to use his second term to make headway with China. He is allowing Chi Haotian, China's Defence Minister and an architect of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, to visit US military bases next week and meet William Perry, his Washington counterpart, at the Pentagon. This is despite an appeal by Nancy Pelosi, a California congresswoman, who wants him to deny Gen Chi "full military honours". She said that hardliners like Gen Chi, 67, were "calling the shots" in relations with America, winning concessions from the Clinton administration "without doing anything about improving human rights". William Triplett, former Republican counsel of the Senate foreign relations committee, said: "If you looked at the entire Chinese military, this is the guy who is most responsible for the death of his countrymen at Tiananmen. I think it's an outrage that we receive him at all, much less with military honours." The goal of US officials now is not to allow differences over individual issues, no matter how significant, upset the new relationship. This is in distinct contrast to Mr Clinton's previous approach. In 1993, 40 Chinese dissidents, student leaders and Tibetan activists, were called to the Roosevelt Room of the White House to watch the President sign an order that required China to take steps towards easing political repression if it wanted trade benefits. telegraph.co.uk ------------------------------------ This article could be used and with some switcho-chango of the words the clinton agenda telegraph.co.uk
