Chinese President Hu Jintao, on his first visit to the White House, failed to produce any breakthroughs during his meeting with President Bush on issues ranging from Iran and North Korea to trade and economy.

According to USAToday.com, "Hu, aware of the growing U.S. impatience with America's record $202 billion trade deficit with China, offered general promises to address the yawning gap, but his comments were likely to do little to cool calls in Congress for punitive tariffs on Chinese products."
