- China's president Xi Jinping is on a state visit to the UK this week. On Friday, Evan Davis spoke at length to China's ambassador to the UK Liu Xiaoming about human rights, democracy and trade. * SUBSCRIBE to get our latest videos bbc.in/1iouM30 *
The ambassador totally controlled the conversation. He was poised, rational, and articulate. Not to mention he spoke with a heavy British accent. On the other hand, this interviewer was nervous and only resorted to the list he was holding. The interviewer was clearly no match for the ambassador. The best part of this conversation was when the ambassador said "No, I don't think you are stupid".
This is what happens when you grow up in a world where your race is “superior” you think you so smart and wise until you experience life outside your culture
Even I, a British citizen admit that the Chinese Ambassador was absolutely right. The lines of state sovereignty should not be blurred
No one is doing that. Look at how many times China has interfered in other nations sovereignty and is still under threat of war still doing so. China has nothing to say to anyone else about this. This ambassador is an idiot.
@@garethifan1034 You can always calculate one or two "sovereignty violence" issues in every country. It just indicates that you know more about the media image of China instead of the reality.
@@yaozhiyuan628 Unlike you ccp paid shills I'm perfectly able to think independently based on what I see and hear, without having to censor myself to the 'rule of the party'.
I feel sorry for you, the party has you over a barrel, and you don;t even know it..
@@garethifan1034 How do you know that l am living in mainland hhhhhh. I watched western "independent" and "neutral" media for almost six years. But there is no positive word about ccp. There must be one or two right? even Starlin will get some credits? But still invisiable. 404 Not Found, Western edition
@@yaozhiyuan628 Of course there's nothing positive about ccp..they are criminals who lead with tyranny - the complete opposite to the proper administration of the Rule of Law..quite odd you see noithing wrong with them
The ambassador is impressive, respectful and has class. Hard not to respect the way he has handled being attacked by a rude reporter. Good job Sir.
LOL yeah a good actor you mean, that's the guy that sells humans, he is trained to stay calm and collected 😐
He is a slave owner...lol
i have been living in the uk for 3 years. Yet, i never seen an article that is positive about China on any british media. Is this the truth? i am sure i have things you can learn from. A country will remain strong only when it is humble. BBC seems to view the CCP as the cause of the poverty of China. But the truth is that when the CCP took over China, China was extremely poor after 100 years exploitation by the west and japanese. In fact, the west was the cause of today's poor china. Find out what the british did to china. In recent 30 years, CCP has pull millions of chinese people out of poverty. What did the british do? Do they have the right to fucking judge us? One simple question. When do the british plan to return those chinese treasures being displayed in the British museum? LOL Let's talk about human right. Human right is not something about a vote. Human rights is that people need to eat, live properly, that people need to have a toilet, not a fucking vote for poor people living in poor countries. The so called largest democratic country india had similar economical level as china in 1990s, and now what you see? Try ask Indian people living in countryside whether they would like to have a vote or a better life like Chinese poor people have got in the past 30 years. Ideology is something that your filthy western governments created to make conflicts between nations, brainwash you people and create hates against countries that have different views from them. Wake up!
+LI ZHAO You are absolutely right , human rights and democracy is all good and fine when you have enough to eat , a roof over your head and the the basics in which a human being can exist . No doubt they talk about human rights because they have all those things mainly from stealing from weak and poor countries . The CCP despite its many faults has achieved a miracle in the last 30yrs , a miracle the West fear above all things . 600 million people lifted out of poverty , the largest economy in the world according to their own IMF , hope and pride for most of its people , increase clout in world affairs ,modernized armed forces to deter aggression and increasingly well educated younger generation .
All those things done in a generation !! Their character is such those that are weaker than them they abuse and exploit but faced with people they think are a threat to their assumed superiority they will seek to undermine and divide . I can see from this thread apart from a tiny few the Chinese here are facing their critics down just like the Chinese Ambassador .
In really basic terms, the issues around human rights in China are about people being sentenced to death, or being subjected to persecutions, or torture for reasons that are considered less serious in the West. Whilst this is subjective, the idea that someone should be put to death for smuggling drugs, is one area which is considered extreme, in the West. It is not that drug use or drug dealing is endorsed by the Western community, or that it doesn't ruin lives, which it does, but that it is not as serious as crimes like murder or rape.
Being compared to India is unfair, as India is a vastly different country to China which has not undergone a total Communist revolution, or strict oppressive policies like the one child policy, which, whilst beneficial, are still quite severe.
Can't agree more
Part of it had to do with the help of the West.
the Economist is OK
Chinese ambassador should mention that the British "Home Children" is the largest children smuggling and trafficking case in human history, and the UK did it at the peak of British Empire. Over 100,000 British poor or orphaned children were smuggled and trafficked from the UK to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa to establish the long term British control in the newly acquired colonies. That must be a fine example of British "human rights" record.
Is that true? lol, Great Britain did such dirty things?
what does that have to do with anything? it happened over 100 years ago for fucks sake.
LOL BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Chinese people don't have time to take care of other people's affairs. We just need to build our own country well.
How can we judge centuries ago mentality?...we were not there...sociological and peoples psychology were so different......
大使的修養太好了， 這個主持人非常頑固的堅持他已經預設的思維，他只是想批判他沒有任何誠意去聆聽和理解 ！
He’s a lying twat , no respect for human life , the chinese way is fuck everyone else , the uk way is , drop your trousers , ill fix that for you .
I think the Chinese ambassador was being overly polite . If i were him i would ask what human rights does the Iraq and its people once a secular and stable country have not to be invaded , occupied ,hundreds of thousands slaughtered , nation destroyed and left with sectarian violence and terrorist army roaming in vast areas of their country ?
What human rights are afforded to Libyans whose country has become a hell hole of violence thanks to your removal and murder of Gaddafi . How about your support of the " free Syrian Army " who turned out to be ISIS terrorists and the human rights of fleeing Syrian refugees whose once stable and relatively wealthy nation you help turn into a war zone ? Human rights are for all and not only for the people whose votes you rely on .
+homan2329 That's why you're not a Chinese diplomat. It's about creating cooperation, trust and win-win situations and not sinking down to the level of most Western countries by pointing out flaws, missteps, contradictions and wrongdoings. Didn't you hear the interview? The British guy was constantly wanting to know what bad things could happen, if suspicious were well-founded and if they had good reason to be scared or worried.
+ThePolishWatermelon 123 I am not a diplomat and you are right , just can't stand the hypocrisy . Every time there is a Chinese state visit the British and Americans uses human rights as a stick to beat the Chinese with while they roam the world abusing the human rights of everybody else .
homan2329 Bro, I can't stand it either. That's why they say Western statecraft and diplomacy are not that well-developed compared to Russian and Chinese.
But even if they were to the same level, they don't act like it for sure. Western countries, especially the us, are *masters of hypocrisy*. This is just fact. It's a way of avoiding the real discussions.
+homan2329 Overly polite? The Communist regime continues to lie about its murderous past. 70 MILLION dead under Mao. FAR MORE PEOPLE than all modern British Wars combined.
+homan2329 You can't stand hypocrisy? Ok, so you have no problem with Xi and Li preaching to other countries about being 'honest about their past' whilst the CCP continues to whitewash their bloody history!The Chinese Communist Party love to play the victim when the reality is they epitomise hypocrisy!
This conversation is like talking to a teenager who thinks he knows everything.
Notorious N Having lived in China and married into a Chinese family, British people sadly sound very immature in comparison to the average Chinese.
bbc is piece of shit ... rubbish propaganda of freedom
He's not talking about the Chinese people he's talking about the Chinese government. I have family who came to Canada who loved China as a country but absolutely despised the government. People who were orginally believers in communism changed idea really quick

@@garwhittaker3743 China is very big. They can finish your small country in the first strike while you will only be able to finish a part of China.
God this was painful to watch. This interviewer needs to humble himself and let the Ambassador speak. The ambassador is clearly a very intelligent person with much to say. Would be nice to hear his views without him having to constantly be interrupted.
Because the ambassador doesn’t answer correctly. Look at 6:19, he asked a question about human rights and the ambassador is talking and comparing human rights in UK when it’s not even the proper way to answer to the question
Jason Gafar yeah，it’s painful to watch this 😭
@@urbanistgod because you don't understand the point too! Let me ask you this question then. What possible RATIONAL human right question can he ask the Chinese Ambassador, then?! You ask your question here and let us have a fest on it.
@@urbanistgod "If your President (Chinese President) will talk about HUMAN RIGHTS..." ??!!! What a very stupid, irresponsible, diabolic question that is! The President of China would never ask that kind of questioning! He is not stupid like your leaders and many leaders in the UK who love to interfere with the affairs of other countries especially the Philippines, China and other countries in Asia. We have NO PROBLEM with your meaning of HUMAN RIGHTS but, THAT IS YOURS and keep it well for your country because we have our own meaning of HUMAN RIGHTS! You deal with HUMAN RIGHTS, but we deal with HUMAN LIVES!
King Marvin There is no “our meaning of human rights”. There is simply: human rights, and they’re terribly bad in China. The journalist has every right to ask any question because it’s his job. What makes you think that people can’t interfere with other countries. So we should just let people starve and suffer like what happens in NK? My point is that the ambassador isn’t even capable of answering logically, he start finding all sort of justification like if it makes his point “right” and we can clearly see that he’s uncomfortable handling these questions simply because he knows that what’s going on is wrong.
I would ask to the host if there is a Guinness award for numbers of people lifted out of poverty? China economic rise lifted 600 million people out of poverty, this is the single biggest humanitarian achievement that ever happened in HUMAN HISTORY BY FAR!!!
zHizU C. Absolutely right!
It's a great redemption from the bygone era of Mao's mishandling of Chinese economics, causing mass famine.
china also killed the most people by famine
@@Charles-qn6je Well, your president didn't care about the citizens and didn't even bother to ask them to wear a mask. That's worse.
@@spiritualfoxplays-tryhardp2284 No, it's not. While the famine, possibly the biggest in human history, was going on the government still exported food to show the world China is more than fine. But China's mistreatment of its poopulation is nothing compared to its mistreatment of its ethnic minorities. They took Tibet unjustfully, suppress Mongols and a possible genocide is going on in Xinjiang. The USA is far from perfect but China is uncomparable to USA in terms of ethics.
BTW I'm not American just so you know.
Chinese Ambassador is really good at describing the facts.
Pro tip : watch movies on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching loads of movies recently.
@Ronin Kaiser Yea, been watching on Flixzone for since november myself :)
I agree. He reaaaaarrrry good! China prosper money and West no so good make me reaaaaaarrrryyy happy! *Dis government message been brought to you by our gray dear reader of ho entire universe Xi Jinping!*
BBC reporter was very arrogant and ignorant...this is a reflection of the British people's general opinion. This is why U.K. is sinking.
i am chinese born in UK and i totally wholeheartedly agree with you
Bushangels ... I'm from the UK and now living in Shanghai. I partially agree with you, although we're not all like that ... This reporter is full of arrogance and has likely never even been to China.
Well said
Only thing is uk has sunken... Have you been to uk and travel around especially Midlands and the North.
@@Jamie-nt3eh hahaha, so true. most of the UK is shithole
The ambassador handled it with class.
beautiful win by the Chinese Ambassador!
Agreed

West media suck
+MrGMilitary Of course as a paid Communist Party supporter- you would say that.
brian777MC- And why do you assume I support that?
Generalisations are lazy you know. For your information, I actively protested against the Iraq invasion in 2003.
Do you have no shame? Are you so narrow minded and nationalistic you cannot accept any criticism of the CCP?
I can recognise my country's flaws- apparently you can't.
Wow…… As a British gentleman you are rudely interrupt the ambassador's talking so many times......What a gentle man you are!
This is typically the outcome of the prevailing education system and social system. People are taught that they have their rights. Don't talk about respect for others or being considerate to others

I wonder what would happen if we went to the US to discuss obesity, gun violence and the NSA? If we criticised Muhammad being the most popular name in the UK? Western countries have this mentality that they can criticise developing countries, but we can't criticise them.
+Shanghai Noon It's because they dunno shit about the world and believe in their own exceptionalism. Like when you hear people say "ahhh!!! The CCP hacks everyone!!" And then the same guy says "oh but the NSA only spies for good reasons, to protect us :>". Then, hilariously, the guy might go unto saying that the CCP exercises mind-control on its populace xD HAHA
Well said!
+Shanghai Noon Are you really stupid or just deliberately lying? You know full well you can talk about those issues. You are proving it right now. If this was China and you were a dissident criticising the CCP you would be dragged away and tortured. If you were ignorant, that would be one thing but the disturbing thing about you is you are so entrenched by your nationalism you are beyond all reason. Westerners in China would be lynched by nationalist thugs if they dared say anything critical of the Chinese government. The West is on the whole, way too tolerant.
+ThePolishWatermelon 123 Tell me about how tolerant Poland is?
Nathan Hazlett I'm talking about the media. When Obama visits China, our journalists don't ask "What will you do about the 110 million Americans on welfare"? or "Do you think it's acceptable that more than two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese"?
Britain should learn to do business with people from different nations and respect their cultures, at the same time the UK must spend more resources to their own people rather than criticising other countries. Save the NHS plz.
I don't think the host really know what he asked. He seems just read the questions prepared MAYBE by himself and then censored by his superior. He doesn't have enough knowledge reserve to support his views and queries except the second-hand information which have already been filtrated deliberately before being posted on the media.
+Xu Liu Are you seriously trying to talk about censorship in the UK? China is the world leader in censorship.
Yes I am talking about the "censorship" in UK seriously maybe different style with other countries. I did not say China have no censorship. The question is China doesn't deny this while UK try to make their people believe their media are completely independent.
+Nathan Hazlett Some British IQ is worse than era during the industrial revolution which is admired by other part of world. I have no reason to look up to you today. You really need to import more smart asians.
***** RUclips, facebook, twitter are blocked in China but not really blocked. Many people know how to use VPN (I have to say "MANY" coz young people know but most middle ages , old people don't know.). If the gov want completely block the RUclips, even the VPN doesn't work. Seems like Chinese gov just want protect their own video website. Look the google, youtube, facebook, twitter are in monopoly position in most of the countries while the serve is in other country. That is bad to a nation's data safe. So the gov simply block them to stop them rapidly developing, and make our own website like baidu, youku, renren, weibo (you can try to login, good way to understand China, like we all know youtube, facebook is good way to know the rest world). Another reason, the party don't want people easily see too many negative informations about themselves or the gov.

that is the trick of the western.
keep asking keep provoking and make you tip off if they can.
They have no intention to make a better understanding but making them look good in all way.

Not on purpose, I must say, the host is literally asking to be humiliated

Bitchy as U are, the host is inferior and dumb.
+Nathan Hazlett Then get every your fucking western out of China first, bitch
Has anyone heard a word of praise on China and its contributions by the BBC host in the entire show? I don't. In fact, he had a list of questions to 'roast' the Chinese ambassador on matters ranging from the reciprocity of business investment, the backdoor to take control of the nuclear facility, cyber threat, human rights, trade retaliation, and work ethics, etc.
On the other hand, the ambassador was well poised, spoke eloquently, elucidated his arguments assertedly, and he even praised the UK. The stark contrast says volume on how the two individuals presented themselves and their country. Check it out yourself!
Great conversation, Chinese ambassador won the show here.
Is the host actually listening to Mr Liu? It's like he is just reading the questions on the paper. Instead of interviewing his guest, I think what he wants is to show off his prejudice by asking.
Ambassador Liu not only smart and cool, he made this BBC reporter learn more about China's political system. Welldone ambassador Liu.
The interviewer is Evan Davis, he was host of TV show Dragons Den. He comes across lambasting, rude and annoying. At first I thought he was merely an ignorant presenter and of small intelligence. But then I looked him up on wikipedia, he studied politics and economics at Oxford and an MPA at Kennedy School Of Government at Harvard... of course just because he when to what many perceive as prestigious universities... does not mean he is wise or intelligent, often those things are inferred. - I suspect (but I might be wrong) that he understands everything Mr Chinese-UK ambassador is saying, and empathetic to the Chinese situation. (A private conversation might be entirely different) - However as part of his job (that enables him to earn living), the bosses at the BBC (who generally have a liberal bias), have forced him to push this angle. The piece of media also has to seem interesting for the average person (to get sizable viewership), many people are not interested in politics and would rather know what kim kardashian is doing... so the BBC subtly emulate the American talkshow style, by talking down the guest and speaking about the topic in a way, 'that a child might comprehend'... frankly over the past few days I haven't been able to find a high quality in-depth analysis in any media...
I am just amazed by the "good manner" of this “British gentleman”. Guess it's a good behaviour to interrupt people while they are answering your question. 😒

So proud of you, Xiaoming.
Can you make sure that China would definitely be still stable and properous if China were to practice democracy？Can you ensure that China would not be turbulent like mideast contries and Ukraine after installing demicracy ？Can you？If not, the majority of Chinese people won't agree with you and follow you.

BBC host cant take such chance to ask CHINA to raise human right issue with UK regime
many UK dissident are hoping that CHINA would challenge UK regime on their poor record of human right abuse.

Roman 213 tough is one thing but Evan is unprepared for this interview by far
Evan Davis is about the nicest interviewer you could ever get. You haven't seen Jeremy Paxman or Andrew Neill, this guy's press secretary would never have allowed that interview, he wouldn't have lasted 2 minutes. Politicians, especially CCP ones are trained to avoid the question, which means the interviewer has to keep repeating the question.

+方古人 the truth is that China is way ahead of UK in this matter. look how the table have been turned in such a short time.
Yes, but why do they have the money? Partially because they were willing to destroy their own environment for it. Look at the Chinese cancer clusters.
Just like the Brits with their Great Smog of London. Thing is, they have already thoroughly developed their nation in terms of gdp per capita, infrastructures, economy but China is still on the rise.
J Johnson you are right but you should look back at British history and keep in mind that UK also suffered from heavy smog during the industrial revolutions. That’s an unavoidable outcome of economic development. Btw, China’s environment has improved drastically since 2015 and somehow the ccp starts to treat the environmental issues really seriously.

Though the westerns have been criticizing the issue of China's human rights all the time, have we ever stopped trading, ever?
great job ambassador!!
do you have the money .....
China is doing business purely, without any other affiliated terms, such as democracy, human right concerns and so on. Business is strictly based on its own rules and principles, for sure, China will never mess them up. But as more business engagements with other super powers, I do hope more criticism is raised. We need more transparency, freedom and human rights. China will learn from others, but it will surely refuse being forced to.Well, I respect the host's style, it's quite British.
Dang... ambassador Liu whopped his butt !
Chinese ambassador is very polite. UK people don't work because of high taxes.
7:45 "Who use trade as a weapon is western" he must answered but he's a diplomatic.
The interview who was asking the questions was being disrespectful and a little bit biased
topic is how often china people shit on the public
Xiao Ying So only statements that align perfectly with the ambassador’s should be uttered? Ridiculous.
The british reporter his mind still stuck with 200 years old.
The host just was seeking what he wanted, he didnt listen and showed no interest in understanding the truth
The truth? What that China harvests millions of people for fucking organs? Or kill them because they speak up? All you fucking Chinese living in other countries go back to fucking China
So basically the Ambassador told him... relax, u have no money... so you will get it from wherever you can... wonder how Boris or Truss would had handled this interview.
Cheers to Liu Xiaoming and China.

I guess it's not that hard to become a BBC host.
Britain caused a famine in India to sell opium in the Chinese market. Then, a hundred years later, this patronising journalist uses this tone with a Chinese Ambassador about Human Rights (which I do revere). But the irony. It certainly sounds a little racist.

The opening remarks are so blunt and right on the point 🤣 lmao.. but I have to say he is really really sophisticated and he didn't get lost in the overwhelming interrogation traps🤣
Is it really necessary for the reporter to be so rude and aggressive? Disgraceful.
I'm speaking as a British person with a deep (but not unconditional) respect for Chinese culture and people whilst having strong doubts about the Western media - the only certainty for both the West and the East is that we cannot be sure which cultural system is inherently more correct at this point in history - only the passage of time will tell. However I would point out to any Chinese viewers that critical questions from British journalists should be viewed in context: British journalists are trained to be tough and critical of our own British politicians so it would be jarring if they were uncritical of other countries too. I hope we can for now just agree to regard each other with equality in spite of our many differences and not drink the cheap liquor of nationalism.
+Edward Till Mate, i have been living in the uk for 3 years. Yet, i never seen an article that is positive about China on any british media. Is this the truth? i am sure i have things you can learn from. A country will remain strong only when it is humble. BBC seems to view the CCP as the cause of the poverty of China. But the truth is that when the CCP took over China, China was extremely poor after 100 years exploitation by the west and japanese. In fact, the west was the cause of today's poor china. Find out what the british did to china. In recent 30 years, CCP has pull millions of chinese people out of poverty. What did the british do? Do they have the right to fucking judge us? One simple question. When do the british plan to return those chinese treasures being displayed in the British museum? LOL Let's talk about human right. Human right is not something about a vote. Human rights is that people need to eat, live properly, that people need to have a toilet, not a fucking vote for poor people living in poor countries. The so called largest democratic country india had similar economical level as china in 1990s, and now what you see? Try ask Indian people living in countryside whether they would like to have a vote or a better life like Chinese poor people have got in the past 30 years. Ideology is something that your filthy western governments created to make conflicts between nations, brainwash you people and create hates against countries that have different views from them. Wake up!
Well you've made several good points about cultural perception which I would agree with as obviously a lot of Westerners who aren't very well-educated don't realise that in the East society isn't constructed around individualism in the same way as the west. But I don't agree with other points. Firstly I don't know why you would hold up India as an example of a good democracy when there are many arguments that indicate Modi is a quasi-fascist as seen here amongst other places www.internationalpolicydigest.org/2014/11/21/narendra-modi-fascist-or-leader-of-the-world-largest-democracy/. Also you seem to be using a lot of propaganda which probably makes you look more brainwashed than the people you are accusing of being brainwashed. You are accusing the west of hating other countries while calling the governments "filthy". And I'm sorry but "A country will remain strong only when it is humble" is a nonsensical paradox like me saying "I will only be tall when I am crouched". I suggest the best way of thinking about this for both of us is to see the shades of grey instead of thinking China=good, west=bad or vice versa as neither are true. As the ambassador said "No country is perfect". Does China does some things better than the west? Very likely. Is China an oppressive regime? Very difficult to tell in the present - I will probably not have all the facts for this until I am old and grey. But please don't presume you have all the answers as time will make a not-so-humble fool of you.
Human right.human right! They are not tired? They have nothing else to talk about?
我差点以为英国人又想要开通商口岸了
Very telling how defensive he got when Human Rights violations came up.
Fact is the China is guilty of violating human rights but they refuse to acknowledge it and will punish anyone who brings it up.
The Interviewer did a wonderful job!
China 1 BBC 0
The ambassador was very diplomatic lol
This Chinese ambassador is a really intelligent man. He totally outclassed Evan Davis a billion times.
Glad to see questions asked. 1st step to understand each other & build a better relationship.😊🙏👍👌
