Chen Guangcheng and U.S.-China Relations

Chen Guangcheng is pushed in a wheelchair by a nurse at the Chaoyang hospital in Beijing on May 2, 2012.
High-level talks in Beijing between the United States and China this week have been overwhelmed by the dramatic and continually shifting story of Chen Guangcheng. The blind dissident who escaped to a U.S. Embassy is no longer in U.S. custody. But he remains at the center of a diplomatic brouhaha - and his story is causing tension between two countries that already struggle to see eye-to-eye.
Host: Michael Krasny
