Bad PR optics for Xi to be in Japan. Never the best of friends, Japanese are now even more suspicious of Xi bearing gifts and the flu. 🤔

The virus circulating around though world came from China. Exporting a killer virus is hardly good for president Xi’s international public relations. Exactly why do people in China have the need to eat rodents? Breath toxic air. And in some places live in squalor?

He is just scared of going to Japan and got the virus, besides he is the one that made the virus and spread it to Japan and around the world in first place, who’s gonna welcome him

it should be postponed permanently cuz he's an evil dictator

Maybe it’s time to cancel all future MAGA rallies too.

Japan opens part of last town off-limits since nuclear leaksNine years after the Fukushima nuclear disaster, the Japanese government opens part of the last town that had been off-limits due to radiation haqzards. It's a symbolic move to show the region's recovery ahead of the Tokyo Olympics. I question the safety of this. The Japanese lied about the extent of damage of the meltdown so why would they be transparent about this? Has it been 9 years already?
