One of this is don't call believing senior China. This magnificent bank will mark the end of our stay in the People's Republic of China. We have been here a week. This was the week that changed the world. The joint communique which we have issued today summarizes the results of our last communique will make headlines around the world tomorrow. But what we have said in that communique is not nearly as important as what we will do in the years ahead. To build a bridge across 16000 miles and 22 years of hostility which have divided. And what we have said today is that we shall build that bridge. Prime Minister our people tonight hold the future of the world. In our hands. And as we think of the
future. We are dedicated to the principle. That we can build a new world. A world of peace. A world of just. A world of independence for all nations. Are going to next and understandably.
