...CHINA AND VIET NAM. Sihanouk disclosed that Chinese Premier Chou En-lai had briefed him, as well as North Vietnamese leaders, on the Nixon visit. Chou reassured Sihanouk and the Vietnamese that no secret deals had been made in Peking, and added that he had told Nixon that the Chinese had not been appointed by Hanoi to settle the war. At one point, Chou cited to Nixon the example of the French withdrawal from Algeria, noting that France increased its international prestige as a result. The Premier told Sihanouk that "no progress" toward a peace agreement had been made...

He was well-briefed on the facts of Nixon's life, for instance. At a banquet in Shanghai, he studied the menu...

CHINA'S Premier Chou En-lai had hardly finished seeing off Richard Nixon at Shanghai airport, waving goodbye with evident weariness and perhaps relief, when he flew back to Peking. There, in pronounced contrast to the quiet scene that had greeted Nixon's arrival a week earlier, Chou received a hero's welcome of unprecedented proportions. As he stepped from his plane wearing a heavy blue overcoat against a biting winter wind, he was met by the entire top echelon of his government, delegations of students, workers and soldiers, and some 5,000 "spectators" who waved bouquets...
