At the G20 Summit, Heads of State and Government will discuss the political challenges of our time. Adultery is not accepted. The content of a conversation between Chinese President Xi and Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau has appeared in the newspapers – much to the dismay of the Chinese.

Chinese head of state and party leader Xi Jinping has complained to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about the lack of secrecy following their bilateral talks. In the video footage, Xi Jinping is seen with Trudeau on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, saying, “Everything we discussed yesterday was leaked to the newspapers. This is inappropriate.”

Xi said that was not how the talks should be conducted. Those who are serious lead the dialogue with mutual respect. “Otherwise, it is difficult to determine the outcome,” Xi Jinping warned. Trudeau replied, “In Canada, we believe in free, open and honest conversation.” Perhaps the dialogue can continue. He wants to work “constructively” with Xi Jinping. “But there will be things on which we will not agree,” said the Canadian Prime Minister.

Xi Jinping looked angry and said, “Make the conditions.” He then shook hands with Trudeau, made another friendly face and left. This is the first meeting between Trudeau and Xi Jinping in more than three years. However, unlike Xi Jinping’s meetings with other heads of state and government, an official meeting has yet to be announced. According to news reports, Trudeau complained about Chinese interference in Canadian democracy during the talks.

Strained relationship. After Huawei Telecom Group Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou was arrested in 2018 at the request of the United States, China arrested two Canadians and charged them with espionage. Diplomats speak of “hostage diplomacy”. After a long standoff with US judicial authorities, Meng Wanzhou could return to China under a barter deal in 2021, after which only two Canadians will be released.
