Carter urges 'harmony' while praising China
Former US President Jimmy Carter, whose administration formalized diplomatic ties with China 30 years ago, yesterday urged President-elect Barack Obama to find ways to work more closely with China on global issues.
Carter also called the US-China diplomatic relationship the most important in the world today and predicted it would continue to greatly benefit both sides for decades to come.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Carter said both sides had to overcome periodic tensions and cooperate on issues including climate change, terrorism and the financial crisis.
"The main thing is for the new administration to work harmoniously with China ... and overcome those differences which are inevitable and seek out the best ways to cooperate as partners," Carter said.
The former US president praised China for its remarkable transformation over the past three decades.
"Not even Deng Xiaoping could have anticipated the glorious changes that have taken place in this wonderful country," Carter said during his opening speech at an academic conference that was part of the events honoring the relationship between the two countries.
Deng was the father of China's economic reforms that started in late 1978.
In his meeting with Chinese President Hu Jintao yesterday, Carter passed on greetings from Obama, whom he met last week during a luncheon with President George W. Bush and former American presidents in the White House.
