On this issue, the Doctor also mentioned that you have some domestic difficulties, the so-called Taiwan lobby or pro-Taiwan elements. Actually, as far as we know, the Taiwan lobby is much stronger in Japan than in the United States. But still, as I said before, if you have domestic difficulties, we can wait.
The second question is the method by which we are going to liberate Taiwan, and also includes the time of the solution.
I just wish to sum up the comments I made yesterday.
I wish to say the reason why the problem can't be solved as we visualize it should be solved is that on your side you have difficulties. It's not that we don't want to solve it.
Secretary Kissinger: I understand that.
Vice Premier Teng: This is all I want to say. I believe we've touched upon all the problems.
The Doctor took 18 days to tour 18 countries. I just took two hours to tour the circle [of global problems on the agenda for disucssion]. [Laughter]
Secretary Kissinger: But you talked more sense. [Laughter]
Ms. T'ang: This shows the advanced technology of the Chinese!
Secretary Kissinger: Let me think about your last remarks, and I'll answer while I'm here in a general way. [Teng spits again into his spittoon.]
Vice Premier Teng: I don't think we can finish our talks on this issue this time.
Secretary Kissinger: I don't think so either.
Vice Premier Teng: So, shall we stop here? And you'll have a little rest, and I'll invite you to taste the well-known Peking mutton [at a restaurant for dinner].
Secretary Kissinger: I'm looking forward to it. I've never had it.
