David Cameron Tells China: Embrace Freedom and the Rule of Law

From guardian.co.uk:

David Cameron will take a calculated gamble and tell China’s leaders today that they cannot shut down debate about democracy, urging them instead to recognise that political freedom, the rule of law and a free press represent the best path to stability and prosperity.

In a speech to students in Beijing, Cameron will go further than previous British prime ministers visiting China by urging the world’s new economic superpower to embrace human rights and democracy.
