Chinese President Hu Jintao is in France for a three-day visit and President Nicolas Sarkozy has received him with full military honours.

Jean-François DI MEGLIO, Economist and President of the Asia Centre at Sciences Po
Emmanuel LINCOT, Chair of the Contemporary China Studies at the Institut Catholique de Paris and Editor-in-chief of “Monde Chinois”
