Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Beijing calls Vance 'ignorant' over 'Chinese peasants' remark
James David Vance is an American politician, author, and attorney, and is currently serving as the 50th vice president of the US. He said Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, was “badmouthing” on the February 19 meeting at the White House. Now, his comments on the trade tension with China earlier this month astonished China and sparked a furious response from Chinese social media users. He said, “To make it a little more crystal clear, we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture.” How much does Vance know about China? In fact, China has the world’s largest high-speed rail system, the most powerful logistics capabilities, EVs and autonomous driving, and drone technologies, as well as the advanced AI technologies that are competitive with the US. Also, why is the US trying to impose astonishingly high tariffs on a country of peasants? The vice president of the US, VPOTUS, is the second-highest ranking office of the US federal government and ranks first in the presidential line of succession.
