Two prominent Chinese dissidents exiled in the United States expressed disappointment Saturday at the meeting between the top leaders of the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) due to their failure to talk about China's democratization.
Wang Dan (??), one of the student leaders of the 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy movement in Beijing, said in a speech to around 300 overseas Chinese in Los Angeles that he felt disappointment and regret over the outcome of the meeting between KMT Chairman Lien Chan (??) and CPC General Secretary Hu Jintao (???) last Friday in Beijing.
Wang said he agreed with some of the points made by Lien in a speech at Peking University, but he lamented that the KMT chairman did not touch on relevant issues regarding China's democratization during his meeting with Hu.
