Article Abstract:
One result of the supposedly accidental bombing of China's embassy in Yugoslavia in the course of the NATO-Yugoslavia Conflict is the rise to prominence of China's Vice President Hu Jintao. Hu appeared on television to deliver a speech to express his country's anger against the US because of the bombing. The former hydroelectric engineer benefited from the event as it was the first time that most Chinese have ever seen him speak.
