China, US share same stance on Darfur issue - envoy(Xinhua)
Updated: 2007-09-12 11:02 UNITED NATIONS -- China and the United States, at the governmental level, share almost the same stance on the Darfur issue, China's special representative for Darfur said on Tuesday. "The US government appreciates the positive efforts made by the Chinese government on the settlement of the Darfur issue and has also given us an appropriate remark," Liu Guijin, who has just ended a visit to Washington, told reporters at the UN Headquarters. It is only on some specific issues that the two sides have different perspectives and have some differences in viewing the priorities, he said. "But indeed we have very good communication and cooperation," he stressed. The US congressional leaders he had met during the visit still had some misunderstanding about the Chinese policy and efforts, but they also recognized and acknowledged China's unique role played in the Darfur issue and hoped that China can do even more, Liu added. "Through this type of candid dialogue and communication ... I think we also will enhance our mutual understanding," Liu said. |
