(достигли соглашения) (вывести) an unspecified number of troops from the area.

(Соглашение по вопросу о) troop movements, despite the vagueness of its terms, rated as the most significant of four pacts signed during a visit by President J. Z., the highest (официаль­ное лицо) China has ever sent to India's capital.

Mr. Jiang's (трехдневный визит) has culminated in a slow (потепление) in Chinese-Indian relations, which (были разор­ваны) in 1962 and (восстановлены) in 1976. In 1998, Prime Minister R. G. visited Beijing, followed by Prime Minister N. R. in 1993.

The agreement on the disputed border, called the "line of ac­tual control", did not spell out how many troops each side (вы­ведет), how far or when. (Разногласия) about the exact location of the de facto border in several places (должны быть разре­шены) before the details on troop movements (будут обсуж­даться на переговорах).

Foreign Minister S. H. of India said he could not say how long (переговоры) would take.

(Взаимное обязательство) not to initiate (военные дейст­вия) along the disputed border was clearer. "Neither side shall use its military capability against the other side", the accord states, adding that no armed forces along the border "shall be used to attack the other side or engage in military activities that threaten the other side or (подрывают) peace, tranquility and stability in the India-China border areas."

Mr. S. described the discussions as "very friendly" and said the countries' (общие интересы) far outweighed their (разно­гласия).

Taiwan by the end of next year and (установит полные отно­шения) with Beijing.

Taiwan said it regretted the (шаг).

"This action seriously hurts (дружеские отношения) be­tween the two countries", (представитель МИД), Р. С, said early Thursday morning in Taiwan. "For this extremely un­friendly decision we express our regret".

Mr. M. said continued (дипломатическое признание) of Taiwan was "inconsistent with South Africa's (расширяющая­ся роль) in international (Делах)". But he said Pretoria would (поддерживать недипломатические связи) with Taiwan.

China considers Taiwan a renegade province and objects to any suggestion that Taiwan is independent. It will not (устано­вить дипломатические отношения) with any country that (признает) Taiwan.

"South Africa wishes to have (сердечные отношения) with both the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China in Taiwan", Mr. M. said.

The President said he had enormous appreciation for Tai­wan's (вклад) to South Africa, particularly its participation in his country's economic development. He also thanked Taiwan for contributing to South Africa's transition to democracy.

Mr. C. indicated that Taipei did not deem the decision final. He (призвал) Pretoria to reverse it and (дал обещание добить­ся) talks with the South African government about the matter.

South Africa was the largest diplomatic (союзник) of Tai­wan, and its decision will leave the island with (официальные отношения) with only 29 states, mostly poor countries in Cen­tral America and Africa that depend on Taiwan for (помощь).
