Even before the September 11 attacks, China and other members of the SCO had signed the Shanghai Convention on Combating Terrorism, Separatism and Extremism and are now stepping up efforts to set up a regional anti-terrorism agency,
ready to make concerted efforts with the U.S. to make this happen.
Our consistent policy is to protect human rights according to law,
Both democracy and human rights are relative concepts and not absolute and general,
Both China and the United States are victims of terrorism and the Chinese and Americans have stood together and carried out effective cooperation in the war against terror,
The system must not be shaken, weakened or discarded at any time. The Western mode of political systems must never be copied,

We must raise our guard against conspirators and careerists within the party.
