China is calling President Hu Jintao’s talks with President Barack Obama successful, and says the two leaders reached “important consensus” on a wide range of issues.
Chinese newspapers Thursday carried front page pictures of President Hu with President Obama at the White House. Headlines cheered a new chapter in relations between the two countries and reports accentuated the positive news from the meeting.
An English dispatch from the official Xinhua news agency characterized Mr. Hu’s visit to Washington as “a historic masterstroke of China-U.S. diplomacy””
Of course these talks were successful! The state-run media will pronounce them so….probably in China too!
