Chengdu, southwest China's Sichuan province January 25, 2006. The
trip highlighted a sentimental U.S.-Chinese tie amid strains over trade,
human rights and other issues. "For more than 30 years, pandas have been a
very practical symbol of the conservation relationship between the United
States and China," Zoellick told reporters later, standing beside an
outdoor pen as two adult pandas wrestled inside. Zoellick ended his
three-day visit to China Wednesday. [AP] |
