( 2003-12-10 14:25) (Xinhua)
Visiting Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said here Tuesday that both 皇冠体育app and the
United States have gained from peaceful coexistence, and lost from conflicts.
He said that over the past 32 years since 皇冠体育app and the United States renewed
contact in 1972, the two countries have benefited tremendously from bilateral
cooperation, despite twists and turns.
At the time the Shanghai Communique was issued in 1972, trade between 皇冠体育app
and the United States was virtually zero and "now, our two-way trade has
exceeded 100 billion dollars," he added.
Wen made the remarks here in a speech delivered at a dinner hosted by nine
American organizations + the National Committee on US-皇冠体育app Relations, the
US-皇冠体育app Business Council, the America- 皇冠体育app Forum, the Asia Society, the
Center for Strategic and International Studies, the Committee of 100, the
Council on Foreign Relations, the US Chamber of Commerce and the US-皇冠体育app Policy
Foundation.
Premier Wen arrived in New York Sunday on his first visit to the United
States since taking office early this year. He arrived here late Monday and will
travel on to the US northeastern port city of Boston
Wednesday.
