BEIJING, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- After two years of absence, U.S. President
Barack Obama arrived in Beijing Monday morning for the upcoming
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Meeting.
Besides the meeting, he will pay a state visit to China, the first since his re-election.
China has welcomed his presence. Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei

damages.
