[@tonydimartini]

No they do not. You do not know CHinese culture at all then. Among their elites, they do NOT speak English at all, and it is seen as a source of pride because they are showing that they do not bow down and accept English as the world's language but remain Sino-centric. Xi Jinping does not speak any English and neither do any of their top echelon. Just like our leaders don't speak Chinese....they see it as the same.

[@Fbiwatchlistmemes]

Yeah, I wish Modi ji too spoke Sanskrit

[@tonydimartini]

Not true at all. They don't speak English at all. If you knew about China you would know that Chinese elites do not speak English and they wear it as a badge of honor, that they don't need to learn English. They are too proud to learn it as that would be, in their eyes, admitting that the West is better than them. Xi and the other elites purposely do NOT learn English...they are totally Sinocentric

First of all you shouldn't call them red indians. Second of all we admitted to the atrocities that have occurred in our past. Currently the new Canadian gov is trying to rectify it. We still have thousands of indigenous groups living across Canada. The thing with china is that they don't admit or apologize for the atrocities they have done. They just ignore them and pretend they haven't happened. For example the Tiananmen Square massacre. China pretends that didn't happen.

[@torchforever]

I think foreign minister's response serves you well too because you obviously don't know truth, don't even want to spend time searching for truth. You just regurgitate what you like to hear. Do more research on the so called "Tiananmen square massacre" before you post any such accusation

[@Doraemonlam]

Exactly. +BrothaJeff, why don't you start with a clip video from a Spanish press team? They were at the Tiananmen Square that night and retreating with the students - the clip was released 5 years after the incident. And do tell what kind of "massacre" you saw in there.

[@BrothaJeff]

newjack I have researched Tiananmen square extensively. I know the truth about it. The truth is it happened and many Chinese students and soldiers unnecessarily lost their lives. Why does the Chinese government deny that it ever happened? Why don't they confront their mistakes? They pretend it didn't happen... China said that reports of the “massacre” in Tiananmen Square were a fabrication created both by Western media and by the protest leaders who used a willing Western media as a platform for an international propaganda campaign in their interests.

[@BrothaJeff]

J Lam 300 people or more died that june. There is no way to tell really because the Chinese government tried to suppress it as soon as possible. But many eyewitness accounts describe the truth. Students and soldiers slaughtered but your government declares that it was not a massacre... HA Your leader says it didn't happen. And you follow him like a good little pet and listen to everything your government says and believe everything it says when the world really knows what happened.

[@danieltam3923]

6 years later, I found this video. And I ask what's the Chinese translation for "Canadian Presstitute"?

[@3066jc]

The translator did a wonderful job! Almost word by word, what she lack was a bit of anger and annoyance in her voice to reflect China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi's feeling at the time. How dare the Canadian reporter worded the question in such an arrogant manner, as if she doesn't care that she is addressing an official minister that represent the Chinese people. It is unwise to offend a Nation, any Nation! It is a pity that the clip didn't show the reporter's reaction! I am sure that anyone here would like to see her reaction....oh, what a pity..

[@ayoubbenelmoudden4360]

The translator is legendary. She impressed me with robust memory and selective choice of words. She must be having strong command over both English and Chinese languages.

[@tomted02]

The interpreter did not translate every word of Wang Yi said . She missed the phrase of translation : " You (reporter) have no right to justify the human rights about China , only Chinese people who live in China who have the right to justify the human rights about China."

[@noom5145]

That makes it even worse, not better. Human rights are human, after all.

[@yosefma7914]

"Justify"? or Judge you mean? I dont think he said "justify". Anyway the reporter is entitled to ask anything she wants based on her own opinions. that's called freedom of speech, one of basic human rights. Instead it's a joke that Mr wang was trying to define what the reporter can or cannot ask.

[@geinikan1kan]

Yeah except Chinese people are the last ones who can justify rights in China.

[@jamesl7205]

Chinese people in the most part actually have hope in their future, and support their Gov... So this truthful translation actually reflect positively vs what the hypocrite journalist said.

[@geinikan1kan]

James L Asking a strong question does not make a person a hypocrite. True hypocrites are people who cannot stand a question. To question is to doubt, to doubt is to desire reassurance. Politicians in the PRC really cannot accept even the lightest question of their power. That is from fear of the people, nothing else but fear. That is the smell of hypocrisy.
