Question
Which hotel did President Clinton visit when he was in Shanghai China?
Answer
Jiang had been criticized inside China for being too conciliatory towards the United States. Jiang went on a groundbreaking State Visit to the US in 1997, drawing various crowds in protest from the Tibet Independence Movement to the Falun Gong practitioners. He made a speech at Harvard University, part of it in passable English, but could not escape questions on democracy and freedom. In the official summit meeting with US President Bill Clinton, the tone was relaxed as Jiang and Clinton sought common ground while largely ignoring areas of disagreement. Clinton would visit China in February 1999, and vowed that China and the United States were partners in the world, and not adversaries. When American-led NATO bombed the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade in 1999, Jiang seemed to have put up a harsh stance, but in reality only performed symbolic gestures of protest, and no solid action. The same happened when a US spy plane collided with a Chinese military jet, killing the Chinese pilot. Jiang allowed the US crew to enjoy stay at a luxurious hotel in Hainan, and released them three days later without asking for any damages.
