Jiang Zemin Visit Quotations

I have visited many countries and I see that when people have an accident, the two groups involved, the two parts always say 'excuse me',

I have visited many countries and I see it as very normal that when people clash (bump in to each other), it is normal that these people apologize, ... Now, we see that these planes come in to our country and they don't want to ask for forgiveness. Is that normal?

I believe that through the joint efforts of China and the U.S., my visit will deepen our mutual understanding, broaden our common ground and promote friendship and cooperation between our two countries, and that China-U.S. relations will enter a new stage of development,

Leaders of both countries have built mutual trust and a cooperative partnership, exchanged high-level visits frequently and coordinated closely in major international affairs,

I hope the whole nation works hard along with residents of the capital city to stage successful 2008 Olympic Games. I also welcome our friends around the world to visit Beijing in 2008.

I look forward to my visit with President Bush to exchange views on serious and important subjects ... to help move forward our cooperative relationship.
