Shocked to learn of the serious attacks against certain areas in New York City and Washington D.C. on September 11, which caused horrendous casualty, I wish to express, on behalf of the Chinese Government and people, our deepest sympathy and solicitude to you and, through you, to the Government and people of the United States. I wish also to extend our condolences to the families of the victims. The Chinese Government has consistently condemned and rejected all forms of terrorist violence.
The bombing itself, the killing itself, are enough to arouse people's feelings, ... The Chinese students just are very, very patriotic. They love their country.
After undergoing rigorous training, the fourth generation is now experienced enough to handle complex challenges both at home and abroad,

I hope the people of all circles in Hong Kong will do still a better job in adapting themselves to the new Hong Kong after 1997 and become better masters of Hong Kong and of our great motherland.
I want to emphasize that both of our countries should handle this affair with a maximum care for their bilateral relations,
superior ability in spearheading the nation's large-scale socialist modernization.

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,

Comrades! We express our deep thanks to all our friends around the world and to the IOC for helping to make Beijing successful in its Olympic bid,
very quickly build up a good working relationship.
