Avoiding DNC, Hillary Clinton gets snubbed in China | WashingtonExaminer.com
Another "FAIL" for foreign policy.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is in China this week rather than at the Democratic National Convention, and shes not getting nearly as warm a welcome as the party faithful might have given.
Chinese Vice President Xi Jinping, regarded as the nations next leader, did not show up for a press conference with Clinton this morning.
Clintons scheduled talk this morning with Vice President Xi Jinping had been called off by the Chinese side, Times Hannah Beech explains, so Clinton had another press conference with the Chinese foreign minister in which she sidestepped a question about whether Xis cancellation might reflect tensions between the worlds two biggest economies at a time when competing territorial claims in waters off China have marred the Peoples Republics relations with its maritime neighbors.
