Blair presses for China democracy

[emad]

China's growing economic power must be matched by improvement in its record on human rights and democracy, UK Prime Minister Tony Blair has said.

Following three hours of talks with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabo, he said people wanted to know "what kind of country they are dealing with".

Mr Blair says Britain's trade with China should reach £21.7bn by 2010.

The target was set as Airbus announced orders from China for 10 A330 aircraft worth £815m.
