...will take months before the full implications of Teng's visit are known. At the very least, his tour marks a dramatic new phase in the relationship between the two giant nations, a phase symbolized last week by the signing of scientific and cultural-exchange agreements, by the prospects of greatly increased trade and of another summit conference in China later this year.
