" After landing on a United Airlines flight in Newark, Chen was whisked to NYU, which has arranged for him to live in graduate school housing just southeast of Washington Square, and for him to attend law tutorials taught in Chinese since Chen does not speak English. NYU has a U.S.-Asia Law Institute where Chen will be a guest scholar and find other Chinese speakers.
“For past seven years, I have never had a day’s rest,” Chen said Saturday night to a small crowd at the NYU apartment complex. Standing on crutches with his children behind him, he said that now was time for “recuperation.” He praised the Chinese government for dealing with his situation “with restraint and calm.”
Human rights activists hailed Chen’s arrival, but added that while it might be a face-saving way to defuse diplomatic tensions, China remains unchanged.
