U N reaches tentative deal on Iraqi oil spare parts

Summit may ease China’s Tiananmen stigma during Clinton visit
The upcoming Clinton trip to China aims to use the Beijing summit as a platform to soften Tiananmen Square’s image and advance Sino American ties. Beijing seeks stronger influence in global affairs, Taiwan policy shifts, and continued U S investment despite limits on technology transfers. U S officials foresee no dramatic breakthroughs on Taiwan sales or WTO accession, while reaffirming China’s role in regional finance and diplomacy.

China mulls halting missile exports before Clinton Xi talks
A senior official said China may agree to stop exporting missile related technology ahead of President Clinton's meeting with Chinese President Jiang Zemin. Talks focus on missile control regime compliance and broader security issues amid investigations into past sharing of sensitive missile guidance tech. State officials cautioned that negotiations could yield a limited, symbolic package, with Wu Zhang Xinxia of Great Wall Industry Corp. denying any tech transfer and warning U.S. sanctions could hurt American firms. Madeleine Albright accompanies Clinton to brief Japan on the trip.
