Xi an outstanding leader, says a cartoon Kissinger
Print Edition
HENRY Kissinger lauding President Xi Jinping is a feature of the latest Chinese cartoon to hit the Internet.
The former US Secretary of State, who paved the way for former President Richard Nixon’s visit to China in 1972 and the establishment of ties between Beijing and Washington, is praised in the short video as “the most awesome foreigner.”
The clip is the latest in a series of animated videos created to promote political concepts such as President Xi Jinping’s “Four Comprehensives,” which was set to a rap jingle.
With white hair, square spectacles and striped tie, the cartoon Kissinger is shown speaking at a lectern and drinking tea with Xi, giving him a thumbs up.
“Most awesome foreigner Henry Kissinger publicly praised Xi Jinping,” the video says in Chinese, before showing Kissinger lauding Xi’s “profound knowledge” of the problem of corruption and his strength as a leader.
Xi “has rich life experience and I believe he is one of China’s most outstanding leaders,” the video has Kissinger say.
In a reference to Xi’s pledge to target both powerful “tigers” and low-ranking “flies” in his anti-graft drive, it also shows the president and Party chief hitting five sacked officials wearing tiger suits with a giant comic mallet, and beating a sleeping, startled tiger with a spiked caveman-style club.
“Uncle Xi not only beats tigers, he also beats snakes in their nests,” it says, showing the cartoon head of state smacking or stamping on the creatures.
The video is credited to the Chaoyang Studio and was shared widely on major Chinese websites yesterday.
