SOUNDBITE (French): PIERRE LAURENT, Vice president of French Senate STORYLINE: A French official says China's development path adapted to its realities is important and must be respected. SOUNDBITE (French): PIERRE LAURENT, Vice president of French Senate "What is striking about China is that it has managed to find a very original path for its development. China sought a new path, a path adapted to the Chinese situation, and I think that this political choice has borne fruit with the policy of reforms in the 1980s and 1990s, and then the acceleration of the development phases afterwards. I think that this path, which consists in always inventing a model adapted to the realities of China, is important and must be respected." Xinhua News Agency correspondents reporting from Paris.
