Guess What: Arnold Schwarzenegger

Guess What: Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arriving in China to promote the Special Olympics, Arnold
Schwarzenegger did not shrink from politically explosive trade
issues.

With China negotiating World Trade Organization membership
with the European Union and a contentious Chinese trade vote in
the U.S. Congress next week, Chinese reporters asked
Schwarzenegger where he stood.

He pronounced himself a free-trader.

"I didn't come here for politics," he said Thursday at the
opening of an Arnold Schwarzenegger film festival. "But I'm a
firm believer, coming from the more conservative kind of
political opinions, that all borders should open up and people
should be trading among themselves all over the world."

The comments marked politics' brief intrusion into a day of
promoting Special Olympics and Schwarzenegger.

the disabled athletes' games, toured a school for the disabled
and kicked off the film festival, with Terminator 2, the movie's
