Mr. Hu Goes to Washington

US/China relations have taken a turn for the worst over the past year. Will Hu Jintao’s visit to Washington starting January 19 narrow or widen that gap?

LONDON – President Hu Jintao will travel to the United States for his third official visit as China’s leader on January 19. It may be his last before he hands over power to his apparently designated successor, Vice President Xi Jinping, in 2012 – coincidentally the same year that President Barack Obama will be campaigning for a second term in the White House.
