Biden calls Xi a dictator after carefully planned summit

[Ralders]

WOODSIDE, California, Nov 15 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday he had not changed his view that Chinese President Xi Jinping was effectively a dictator, a comment likely to land with a thud in Beijing after the two leaders held straightforward summit talks.

Biden held a solo news conference after four hours of talks with Xi on the outskirts of San Francisco. At the end of the news conference, he was asked whether he still held the view that Xi was a dictator, something he said in June.

"Look, he is. He's a dictator in the sense that he's a guy who runs a country that is a communist country that's based on a form of government totally different than ours," Biden said.

In response, China's foreign ministry said it "strongly opposes" the remarks, without mentioning Biden by name.

"This statement is extremely wrong and irresponsible political manipulation," foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told reporters on Thursday at a routine briefing.

It should be pointed out that there will always be some people with ulterior motives who attempt to incite and damage U.S.-China relations, they are doomed to fail."

Mao refused to specify the identity of "some people" in answer to a follow-up question.

Last March Xi clinched a third term as president when nearly 3,000 members of China's rubber-stamp parliament, the National People's Congress, voted unanimously for him in an election in which there was no other candidate

Xi is considered the most powerful Chinese leader since Mao Zedong, after a decade of consolidating power in policy-making and the military, and stifling media freedoms.

There was no immediate reaction from the Chinese delegation, which had come to the United States to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco. Hundreds of critics of Beijing marched through the city's downtown around noon, chanting "free Tibet" and "free Hong Kong."

Sama sama lah. China had a hand in stealing the 2020 US election. Hint: mail-in ballots and SF Express.

Biden again calls Xi Jinping a 'dictator' as China vows to be 'unstoppable' in retaking Taiwan​

Biden incited outrage in China when he first called Xi Jinping a 'dictator' in June​

President Biden repeated his reference to Chinese President Xi Jinping as a "dictator" on Wednesday just hours after a spokeswoman for the Chinese government vowed her country would be "unstoppable" in eventually retaking Taiwan.

Biden's comments came at his press conference concluding the U.S.-China summit in San Francisco when a reporter asked if he would still refer to Xi using the term, which he used for the first time in June.

"Well, look, he is. He's a dictator in the sense that he's a guy who runs a country that is a communist country, that is based on a form of government that is totally different than ours," Biden said.

Biden is polite enough, if coming from Samsters' mouth, it could be worse e.g., I will call him a DICKATOR instead

Nobody is clean including Israel. Netanyahu was the first leader to congratulate Biden. BTW, SG is not clean either. Hint: Dominion counting machines linked to internet.

He can only call out names.

US and Japan won't allow China to take over Taiwan. That is not going to happen. Xi jinping can plan but his generals won't agree.

China is not ready to go to war over Taiwan. Not for the next 30 years. All they want is the status quo - don't declare independence, stop arming Taiwan to the teeth.

You bet Xi will be working hard behind the scenes to wangle a KMT alliance victory in the upcoming elections.
