Ambassador of Canada to the People's Republic of China, Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development

I have been there for five weeks and have had quite a few meetings, but I have not yet had the opportunity to discuss that.

This abstention regarding Syria is a very good gesture I think, as our Minister of Foreign Affairs has said; she will be in China over the next few months to discuss these issues. I may also have this opportunity.
