Ahmadinejad Meets Benefactor Jintao
August 18, 2007 by pulkit
The Chinese premiere Hu Jintao and Ahmadinejad met in Shanghai on the sideline of the Shanghai Corporation Organization summit. The Chinese President offered a word of support to Ahmadinejad, but asked him to comply with international nuclear laws. Jintao said that Iran should be flexibility, peace forsaken.
Ahmadinejad, like he always does, assured his Chinese counterpart that Iran would co-operate with IAEA, while keeping all channels of communication. It seemed to be the same done-to-death political rhetoric. China enjoys cordial relations with the pariah regime of Ahmadinejad, and openly supports the same. Though, even China is a wily fox and occasionally feigns a parentally harsh tone in front of the world, when dealing with Iran.
China can bring to an abrupt end the entire furor over Iran’s nuclear issue, if it adopts a harsher tone and raps Iran on the knuckles.
Hu said China is keen on resolving the nuclear issue through peaceful negotiations.He said China understands Iran’s concerns but hopes the country shows flexibility for the peaceful settlement of the issue. [source]
