It says a lot about a person who humbles himself and remembers you and your favor from 40 years ago, even after becoming one of the most powerful figures of the world.
There's a sagely Chinese saying for such behaviour. Experiencing kindness from people leaves a memory that lasts a hundred years and to be garland by flowers leaves a fragrance that lasts a thousand years.
Almost 40 yrs ago, Xi Zinping was a guest at an event in IA. A host of that event treated him well and he remembered. Kindness is long remembered. That lady is here in San Francisco to be a guest of honor at the reception for Xi and his delegation. She is not a political opponent, so, there is no problem. The point is, if you treat people with kindness, people appreciated. Even, that person is a communist leader. Use kindness to change the world.
If I were Blinken, I would wince too. Biden just came from a summit meant to promote goodwill between two countries and turned around and called the other leader a "dictator", regardless of whether or not it's the truth. Just terrible timing.
@@cakeyummy2401 it is probably true, but like OP said, its bad timing. Just like when my girlfriend whos 5'5 and weighs 180 lbs asks me "Do i look fat in the dress?" I would probably said no....
So, we're all about political correctness on this matter, but when it comes to ceasefire in Gaza we hate that Biden won't even talk about it because it would hurt the feelings of Israel.
It's the facts, they're a dictator even if they're your friend or not if they rule a country with a government system that makes it so that the people cannot choose their leader.
It’s also in poor taste to copy the cell phones of your guests as well as have a low level dimwit rage yell at the guest delegation and press to move for no other reasons besides a petty power trip.
biden is correct why listen he describe a person who govern a country in a dictator way, if biden said xi govern china in a democracy way the grammar is wrong, secondly biden is directly warning the apec members about XI plan to the world
The reporter asked a question. Was he supposed to lie and say Xi wasn't a dictator? The American media would be on his ass for flip flopping. Could literally be an issue that loses an election.
What a heart warming story. they may be far apart, they may haven't spoken to one other for years, but this special friendship is eternal, no words needed.
@@sling8015 Brother, don't judge a person by what you read in the media. The media is brainwashing you and making you believe a fact that doesn't exist. Do your own fact-based investigation before believing it.
@@uttaranboruah9475y’all stop clowning Blinken. He hasn’t been sleeping well in the past month and it’s very challenging for him to work with Grandpa Joey.
Why is it extremely wrong ? Who give you the right to decide for 1.4 billion Chinese ? Independent research showed the current Chinese government achieves 80+ % vote of confidence.
Calling a leader as dictator whose country has the most rapid changes during the last 30 years just show how hypocritical and stupid you would be especially when you want to build good relationships. Only showing how ignorant and lack of empathy and IQ. However, so far the meetings look good and don’t blow up all the business deals that did take huge efforts from both countries!
He is a dictator, basically for life. In 2018, for the benefit of Xi, China amended their constitution to remove the two-term limit. BTW, I'm not anti-China. I'm actually very much pro-China, want good relations, admire their culture, and even studied Mandarin for two years. But, we need to acknowledge reality.
@@aero.l sure. Fuel independent, large nuclear arsenal, economical hegemony, supremacia of currency..... that's edgy, not China redrawing maps like Crazy to get more and more slides of sea for themselves. Oh no
same. theyve got funny stories like the pandas being taken back then returned, goofy trade wars, and the sun bear conspiracy. let that be all it is man.
Me too. China and US were not competitors historically, however, forcing companies to surrender intellectual property as a price for doing business in China is wrong. Stealing state secrets - everyone with competent intelligence does that, but what China has done is systemic frontal coercion. They made amazing strides, enough to innovate on their own and be competitive.
The family from Iowa, is your all-American humble folk. The most traditional Americans as it gets. The Lande family, hosted President Xi, when he was basically a nobody and Xi remembers how nice they were to him. It's really that simple. Apparently Xi often writes letters to Sarah every year to wish them Merry Christmas and Happy new years!
That B&R initiative indebted most of those countries and China gladly renegotiates to create military bases. Stupid countries get stupid results. China is slowly loosing businesses and in the next 10 years will no longer be making the majority of those products. Hence the visit from Xi crying for businesses to come back.
the belt and road was china's way to colonize other countries. China knew papua new guinea did not have the capital to build the new port so china offered a loan they knew new guinea could not pay for and after they stopped paying china took the port over. This is happening in many of the african countries that china offered to build infrastructure for. Soon Africa would be pockets of china all over.
A dictator whose government has a 90+% approval rate from its people, and lifted 800 million people out of poverty. Every country can use a dictator like that.
Tell me: is forcing another country (Canada) to detain a private citizen (Meng) of an opponent country (China) for no good reason for three years not dictatorship?
We Chinese never forgets when someone did us a favor! We will always try to return the favor when the opportunity comes.❤❤

@dailm8056 the problem isn't age problem is this guy can't walk 2 feet without falling over some stairs or being guided by his handlers like a puppet unlike chinese president XI
You may be a President, politician, Govt. official, reporter, business leader, professor, scientist, farmer, painter, fisherman, driver or any other ordinary person and it still shouldn't change the way of a cultured and civilized being's behaviour towards your Guest in your Home. It reflects clearly the personification of a Lout or Grifter which doesn't even care what others think of them and their way of life.
Chairman Deng Xiaoping of China once said that whether it is a white cat or a black cat, it is a good cat if it catches mice. No matter what the system is, as long as people can live a good life, does it matter who is in power?
The most ironic was that the question was asked by an Asian descent journalist. We just went through so much Asian hate with the pandemic why create more hate . I wonder if she was forced to ask controversial question as a scapegoat or she is asking to provoke . There is no responsible journalism anymore everyone just wants to be famous and climb the ladder . Suppose to be collaboration between two countries it’s such an important meeting. There is no respect. Seems like journalism is thirsty for chaos they don’t like to report peace because it’s not interesting .
Because that's what he deserves. Bevause having this meeting is an insult in itself to decency already. The reporter probably asked that out of, justifiable, revolt and so needed and missed in this country indignation
American ppl probably don't understand why President Xi is still keep contacts with the American family. But we Chinese understand, it's our cultural gene that we must be extremely grateful to the one who ever give warmth to you when help is needed. If i were him I would definitely would also like to visit and keep contact with the American family, it's just our cultural values.
Jesus, after being a politician for decades, you can’t dance around that question and answer a little bit better Holy cow He’s lost his freaking mind Literally
It was so Pooh could try and get back some of the investors he badly needs. This Meeting should never have happened. They blatantly call of US's destruction day in and out. The insult was the only silver lining and actually commendable thing there
To be fair Xi's father was pretty high up the party and one of the OG revolutionaries that founded the PRC. But yes Xi Jinping himself did spend many years working up the leadership ladder rung by rung until he made it to the top. Although that was also the case for many other higher level Chinese politicians. Xi's "final boss" on his way to the top was Bo Xilai, also a son of a revolutionary, and Xi had to take Bo down on his way to become party chief. Now Xi is president for life and Bo is in a prison.
his father was a founding member of the PRC but he was purged during the culture revolution. It arguably made Xi's ascension much more challenging. Xi has expressed that he had hated his father in his youth years for that reason
All former Chinese leaders were grassroots... Maybe with the exception of Xi. All of them got to their leadership position through a very strict meritocracy system. Now in America you have political families where father and son, husband and wife all ran for president...
Different political systems do not mean that people cannot communicate with each other or become friends with each other. However, the development of China over the past 30 years suggests that the United States should talk less about China's political system, as it will only make itself more shameful.
@@sling8015 do you even know the definition of dictatorship? American propaganda has blinded you Americans. Dictator means atatined power through force. You keep listening to American propaganda yet you fail to see the beauty that their govt has produced for their citizens. All Americans think of is war and LGBTQ rights. Wake up!!!
@@sling8015reading bbc news about China's political system doesnt mean you know their system. One sided coloured information, doesnt mean you understand the system. Thinking you understand and know with that little information is stupid and dangerous. When a whole population in a certain country thinks like that, it can lead to wars with a wrong narrative. You obviously know nothing about China's (very unique) political system.
When Biden call Xi a dictator, Blinken's reaction was hoping that someone would walk up to the podium and stop Biden from talking about Xi and maybe guide Biden the way to the back stage.
That’s why Xi spent lots of efforts to eliminate the poverty in China since he was in power. His Belt and Road plan is also aiming to help other countries to get rid of poverty.
This indicates a gross lack of cultural exchange. If I were China's foreign service, I would invite that reporter who asked the question for a tour of the 1st tier cites in China.
Calling him a dictator and proceed to give him the most heartwarming welcome and hospitality with smile , America isn’t an exemple of democracy compared to China , no way
He's got control over wokeism. CHINA as a country with him being president has a sense of pride. I'm from India, and I have a lot of Chinese friends. I'm a amazed at how China balances free enterprise with a Military regime.
Sure, cuz Chinese didn't backstab anyone when they signed the treats about sea exploration and then started creeping onto other countries Waters, right?
They should have put this American family into a leadership position and then the U.S. would have been truly admired by countries around the world instead of being feared.
A lapse in judgment. He remembered that the conservatives hate him and probably tried too hard to appease them by taking the “dictator” bait. Putting the China relationship back on track is more important than simping for racists who would never have voted for him anyway. Biden probably forgot that in the heat of the moment.
The Video discusses a significant meeting between President Biden and China's President Xi Jinping, highlighting the resumption of high-level conversations between the two countries. The context of the meeting is set against the backdrop of a unique and personal connection between President Xi and a woman named Sarah Landy from a small town in Iowa. Sarah Landy has known President Xi for 40 years since his visit to Mustine, Iowa, in 1985. At that time, she hosted him when he came to learn about hog farming. The story emphasizes the bond of friendship between Sarah and President Xi, recounting the hospitality she provided, including staying in her son Gary's room in a modest setting. The narrative creates a personal touch to the diplomatic relations, showcasing a human connection that transcends political boundaries. The report mentions President Biden's response to a reporter's question, where he refers to President Xi as a dictator. This remark leads to speculation and scrutiny, with Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's reaction indicating a level of concern or uncertainty about the consequences of such labeling. The Chinese authorities respond strongly to this characterization, labeling it as "extremely wrong and irresponsible." The video portrays a diplomatic encounter between President Biden and President Xi Jinping while highlighting a unique personal connection between President Xi and a woman from Iowa. The human-interest aspect underscores the potential for interpersonal relationships to impact diplomatic interactions positively. However, the political tension surfaces when President Biden refers to President Xi as a dictator, leading to a strong reaction from the Chinese side. This narrative is a reminder of the complex interplay between personal connections and political dynamics in international relations. The story of a small-town hostess and a future world leader adds a human touch to the broader geopolitical landscape. However, the political comment about President Xi being a dictator introduces a layer of tension, showcasing the delicate nature of diplomatic discourse. It emphasizes the importance of careful rhetoric in international relations, where personal connections and political realities intersect.
Sometimes I think journalists should exercise some discretion. What is the purpose of that question? Was it necessary at that point, after what precious little progress was achieved during this meeting?
Actually it's nice to promote people to people friendship for once, good on you Insider. Some comments about dictator, I want one of those dictators that can lift 800 million people out of poverty and love their country. Our country have selfish corps, our societal moral is deteriorating, leave the job for the right dictator, make our families and neighborhoods kind and thrive again.
Would Canadian mainstream describe Indian president a dictator then? If not, is it only because Modi is running the same political system like the West?
this USA attitude is so hillarious, its like welcoming a guess with all very polite gestures and manners while trash talking "Politely" the guess on his face
They elect their leaders through a democratic process, and the president of the USA holds more individual power than that of China. Just for the record :P.
After 40 years, Xi doesn't forget his old friends in Iowa is definitely a man with character. Only a man such for'biden' doesn't know what kind of person he is. Poor American fellows who had voted him...
Not all were in poverty. Most were forced out of their rich historical homes that were well built because the gorges dam flooded their homes. Family history underwater now. And, most these new building apartments with bars on windows is soo strange.

All former Chinese leaders were grassroots... Maybe with the exception of Xi. All of them got to their leadership position through a very strict meritocracy system.
Now in America you have political families where father and son, husband and wife all ran for president...
And betrayed his father, in typical Three Kingdoms fashion. What a great example of human being!
I mean, Bo was corrupted. And his wife yeeted that British dude. @@tren133
These lovely folks from Iowa will always be the true America in my mind.
The white house secretary nervously sweating behind the scenes.
Any white house secretary would be sweating daily with abother Dem at office after Bill Clinton ..........
He’s the US Secretary of State
Different political systems do not mean that people cannot communicate with each other or become friends with each other. However, the development of China over the past 30 years suggests that the United States should talk less about China's political system, as it will only make itself more shameful.
The thing is it not a political system it a dictatorship
@@sling8015 do you even know the definition of dictatorship? American propaganda has blinded you Americans. Dictator means atatined power through force. You keep listening to American propaganda yet you fail to see the beauty that their govt has produced for their citizens. All Americans think of is war and LGBTQ rights. Wake up!!!
@@sling8015 i dont think you understand how their gov works.
@@catsNcode no offense but I think it’s the other way around
@@sling8015reading bbc news about China's political system doesnt mean you know their system. One sided coloured information, doesnt mean you understand the system. Thinking you understand and know with that little information is stupid and dangerous. When a whole population in a certain country thinks like that, it can lead to wars with a wrong narrative. You obviously know nothing about China's (very unique) political system.
Good freind of Sarah Lande ❤ and thanks to President Xi 👍🙏
Have you ever tried to compare Biden with Xi? OMG! I should even be asking this question.
One is an Asparagus, the other is a gen@cidal of his own people
There, I did It for you. No need to thank me, I only accept invoices
When Biden call Xi a dictator, Blinken's reaction was hoping that someone would walk up to the podium and stop Biden from talking about Xi and maybe guide Biden the way to the back stage.
he seems like a nice guy as well. so it's rude to insult someone. ya gotta get to know someone before ya judge
You can tell this Iowan lady understand the Bible. Bless the people of Iowa.
Such personal friendship is a people relationship which is sincere one! It is best for human life and good for world peace!
Be humble be kind be compassionate be helpful n most important be sincere god bless y9u
Will the real dictator please standup.
Present
will the real slim shady please stand up
hahahahaha
@@CCSn0wsi stand up
"were gonna have a problem here"
Memories willed last forever!!!👍👍
poor blinken, thinking to himself: please, don't, please, no....stop...noooooooo lol
I dont believe that XI is a dictator. Never
it's a fact
based on? ... @@fooddipclips5900
The US has officially fallen.
Xi is such a kind and humble communist dictator. The best kind of dictator!
Xi always seems so calm of which I don’t see how.
他并不是独裁者，他个人情绪不能反应出来。他代表的是14亿中国人。所以他必须收起个人情绪。。。。真正的独裁者是不需要隐藏个人情绪的
China is lucky to have a leader who cares about its citizens, qualified to work, & down to earth! We have a leader close to be in the earth 🤢
That’s why Xi spent lots of efforts to eliminate the poverty in China since he was in power. His Belt and Road plan is also aiming to help other countries to get rid of poverty.
This indicates a gross lack of cultural exchange. If I were China's foreign service, I would invite that reporter who asked the question for a tour of the 1st tier cites in China.
Calling him a dictator and proceed to give him the most heartwarming welcome and hospitality with smile , America isn’t an exemple of democracy compared to China , no way
Democracy isn't Chinese never was
They escape to Singapore UAE Australia USA Canada etc
Thank you so much! ❤
如果你想跟朋友友好相处，就应该学会尊重，而不是打完招呼后就说别人的坏话，而作为一名政客，更要注意自己的言行举止，因为你代表国家
I agree, Biden is the worse president we have ever had.
Maybe don’t have bad things to be said about you then if you don’t want to hear it
@@jamesmoore381Well according to conservatives America is the best country so there’s nothing to complain about
Your chairman wants to make friends.
How about have the right to vote first?
@@HomeLover369 적어도 중국의 정치인들은 에너지를 국가운영에만 쓰고있다는 것이 보입니다. 개인의 득표율을 위한 거짓말과 걱정에 쓰지는 않습니다.
i'm here for the lovely friendship between 2 human being, can't helped but choked on the dictator remark.
So touching and inspiring!
Senile old man. You invited people to your house, then you condemn your guest. Marvelous.
Nothing’s wrong with communist, which makes a great and strong country and lifted 800 Million people out of poverty.
Be kind to each other
He's got control over wokeism. CHINA as a country with him being president has a sense of pride. I'm from India, and I have a lot of Chinese friends. I'm a amazed at how China balances free enterprise with a Military regime.
I didn't know he had been here once before
He was in the US for more than a year
Great story.
You respect others, others will pay the same respect to you, but if you decides to stab others in the back, don't expect anything better.
Sure, cuz Chinese didn't backstab anyone when they signed the treats about sea exploration and then started creeping onto other countries Waters, right?
@@turinmormegil7715 lmao, you sure you want to explore this topic? 🤣
@@DDDarkz oh, I've fished one. Offended I've confronted your 50 cents attempt?
in 1984 the Chinese Olympic team was cheered in Los Angeles since the Soviets boycotted the games after we boycotted the Moscow Olympics.
Thank you!❤
Thank you for taking care of China great leader Xi Jinping, Mam & God bless! ❤❤❤
They should have put this American family into a leadership position and then the U.S. would have been truly admired by countries around the world instead of being feared.
Biden making us look stupid💀🥴
and in front of the whole world!! its in Biden's dna...he cannot help it.
A lapse in judgment. He remembered that the conservatives hate him and probably tried too hard to appease them by taking the “dictator” bait.
Putting the China relationship back on track is more important than simping for racists who would never have voted for him anyway. Biden probably forgot that in the heat of the moment.
Indeed. Accepting this Meeting was the worst part of it
@@turinmormegil7715 every modern US President has met Chinese leadership. Including Trump in 2017. This is as normal as things should be.
With many controversial US foreign policies in the past decades. A sleepy president really is just a little icing on the cake
The Video discusses a significant meeting between President Biden and China's President Xi Jinping, highlighting the resumption of high-level conversations between the two countries. The context of the meeting is set against the backdrop of a unique and personal connection between President Xi and a woman named Sarah Landy from a small town in Iowa.
Sarah Landy has known President Xi for 40 years since his visit to Mustine, Iowa, in 1985. At that time, she hosted him when he came to learn about hog farming. The story emphasizes the bond of friendship between Sarah and President Xi, recounting the hospitality she provided, including staying in her son Gary's room in a modest setting. The narrative creates a personal touch to the diplomatic relations, showcasing a human connection that transcends political boundaries.
The report mentions President Biden's response to a reporter's question, where he refers to President Xi as a dictator. This remark leads to speculation and scrutiny, with Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's reaction indicating a level of concern or uncertainty about the consequences of such labeling. The Chinese authorities respond strongly to this characterization, labeling it as "extremely wrong and irresponsible."
The video portrays a diplomatic encounter between President Biden and President Xi Jinping while highlighting a unique personal connection between President Xi and a woman from Iowa. The human-interest aspect underscores the potential for interpersonal relationships to impact diplomatic interactions positively. However, the political tension surfaces when President Biden refers to President Xi as a dictator, leading to a strong reaction from the Chinese side.
This narrative is a reminder of the complex interplay between personal connections and political dynamics in international relations. The story of a small-town hostess and a future world leader adds a human touch to the broader geopolitical landscape. However, the political comment about President Xi being a dictator introduces a layer of tension, showcasing the delicate nature of diplomatic discourse. It emphasizes the importance of careful rhetoric in international relations, where personal connections and political realities intersect.
Correction: It emphasizes the need to give a blind eye to atrocities so both can milk each other the most before mutual destruction
i'm not reading that essay of a comment
@@ryanland979 don't waste your time, it's IQ-reducing to read that
This AI needs some significant improvements.
Be nice to lowly civil servants.
Sometimes I think journalists should exercise some discretion. What is the purpose of that question? Was it necessary at that point, after what precious little progress was achieved during this meeting?
Yes, a journalist should confront politicians when they fack up. Like when they invite a gen@cidal to their country as If they were best buddies
@@turinmormegil7715did China drone strike children in Gaza ?
That story is so touching and unexpected😂Lol.
Kindness goes a long way! 🎉
Sarah is better at diplomacy that most diplomats and government officials.......Give here Blinken's job.
Sarah who?
Give her Biden's job would be more appropriate.
100% Agreed
That's so sweet!!!
blinken didn't sleep for weeks I am sure .
Southwest airline can use that Blinken's reaction clip for its Ad: "Want to get away? Now you can with Southwest fare as low as....."
Now I know who has been saving us for all these years 😂😂
I read the title and thought he was meeting the cast of Friends
Hello 👋
Actually it's nice to promote people to people friendship for once, good on you Insider.
Some comments about dictator, I want one of those dictators that can lift 800 million people out of poverty and love their country. Our country have selfish corps, our societal moral is deteriorating, leave the job for the right dictator, make our families and neighborhoods kind and thrive again.
Blinken ain’t blinkin’.
Xi’s smile says it all. What a great story. America needs to play it smarter, not tougher.
Strong bond!
Wow he remembers
Would Canadian mainstream describe Indian president a dictator then? If not, is it only because Modi is running the same political system like the West?
The U.S. never slanders the Philippines democratic government, even though its a total shitshow.
Double standard
Dude. 1 step forward 2 steps back. What were you thinking!
this USA attitude is so hillarious, its like welcoming a guess with all very polite gestures and manners while trash talking "Politely" the guess on his face
Whats a word that they would call a dictator thats politically correct, a leader?
whinnie the poo right?
They elect their leaders through a democratic process, and the president of the USA holds more individual power than that of China. Just for the record :P.
Would Biden call Saudi king a dictator? No, no way. Western hypocrisy is sickening.
Supreme leader
son of the heaven
After 40 years, Xi doesn't forget his old friends in Iowa is definitely a man with character. Only a man such for'biden' doesn't know what kind of person he is. Poor American fellows who had voted him...
Blinken, is worried😂, he is not blinking
Awesome story.
when you grow old enough, you become a kid.
Mentally - to when one was a 2-year old.
Dictators don't eliminate 800M out of poverty.
Not all were in poverty. Most were forced out of their rich historical homes that were well built because the gorges dam flooded their homes. Family history underwater now. And, most these new building apartments with bars on windows is soo strange.
Make this a movie!
