China Speaks About President Donald Trump, South China Sea, Trade (Full Interview) | NBC News
Mr. Lu Kang, on behalf of the American people we are truly sorry that you had to sit down with this idiot interviewer for 33 minutes. Regards. ~The American People
Yumin Gui You can put the full name after Mr in English, it's quite common
I believe Koreans do the same. Is this common in most Asian countries? Thanks for sharing this cultural lesson :)
John Smith don't let him fool again to American !
John Smith Actually they have produced a lot like paper, printing, compass and gunpowder
On behalf of Chinese People, we accept your apologize :P
The Chinese official is cool and mature, unlike the naive American kid reporter.
haha "kid"....a kid, a rookie, a fool....and on top of all that he's got a one-dimensional conversational direction with grey hair and weary war-mongering words. "kid" is accurate. It's just funny that he has grey hairs
True.
the "cool" and "mature" ones are the exact ones you should be more concerned about....... Chinese are smart people, act "cool" in front of the public, but Id like to see his real response behind close doors with the government
not saying he is a bad guy, but your premise someone being mature has no merit on how malicous someone can be
depends on how much malice is actually coming from the other side
Lyubing Zhang from USA, to much.
Lu kang : we don't want any war, trade war , or anything like that
Richard: speaking of trade war , is that coming?
Lu kang: we don't want that! ( i mentioned we dont want war like 3 sec ago )
@Mr. Type Writer one thing i have to ask u, shouldn't this question must ask the person who started the trade war? ( Trump msybe)?
wow, this reporter just didn't get it. i hope he is not the only anchorman out of nbc ay yay yay
I'm surprised to see that Lu Kang disarmed all those aggressive questions with his second language...
Yes. The guy is very smart.
@Mr. Type Writer His responses were masterful. It's as good as it can get.
@Mr. Type Writer r/iamverysmart
Typical Chinese Communist doubletalk!
Lu Kang is peaceful. He knows that Americans are arrogant warriors that make war using weapons of mass destruction as a solution rather than peace talks.
China has agreement in trade with USA. China has outsmart USA just the same way Lu Kang has done to Mr Engel. While USA has busy destroying, massacre in other countries, China being busy producing goods, cultivating good relation with other countries, and cooperating. China is a good example of enrichment as a nation while USA is in downward trend.
Rafael Camilo Perhaps, but things are changing.
Trends reverse all of the time, and Chinas people don't enjoy nearly the same standard of living per capita as those in the US. Yes there is a growing middle class there but most of the money there has gone to the Beijing Elite.
Rafael Camilo don't you think they are sneaking , lieing and make believe to the world that they are pieceful country . they are nothing but a copy cat for sure !
i dont trust political leaders..... they are the same
Rafael Camilo started the war
Lu Kang deserves a medal for not bitch-slapping this insolent, uneducated, pathetic, pretender. I have not watched ANY television (including cable) news in over 30 years. This reinforces my decision.
Jim Benn does he blink!?
无忌是唯一的_nothing but all OK So Breitbart?
I am 51 now, 850 credit score and since 1989, I have received and or paid for Cable 2.5 years. Lol. I ponder where Lu Kang was educated? Hong Kong or further abroad.
I think he wanted to at times.
1, China Foreign Affairs University.
2. Nanjing Foreign Languages School.
you know, as a Chinese, I'm fully aware of the fact that our country having so many problems (pollution, corrupted officials, media censorship, etc you name it.) However, I'm quite confident about the future of this country because I believe it is ran by intelligent people like Lu at the top level.
Yuchi Zhao You are also a big asset to your country, because you seem to be self-aware and unbiased. Our own biases hide the truth from us and you understand that.The people whom voted for Trump don't understand it. I think in general Asia people are smarter than westerners (and I am Canadian),so they tend to be more aware of their own biases. I want to know the truth,so I want to realize my own biases. Everyone has biases and they should try to be self aware of those biases,so they can avoid the influence which leads to delusion.
Yuchi Zhao - China 've 3000 years of university civilisation while europe still in stone age &............. America in.....dinosaur age
That is B S.
PRC has been poorly managed ever since 1949. In that year, all Hong Kong, China (ROC) and China (PRC) had more the less the same GDP per capita. Now PRC (China) has a per capita income level 1/3 of that of ROC (China). It is 1/5 of that of Hong Kong. That tells you to what extent the management of CCP sucks.
Emperor XI, the new imperial leader of CCP does not even bother to bring any kind of reform (legal and civl) to the nation at all. And yet China (ROC) is a full blown democracy with frequent and peaceful changes of the dominant reigning party
China really looks like the future
Grettings from Europe
Daniel Tong doesnt make any sense to compare a coutry with 1.3 billion to a city with 7m population or place with 23million pop in term of GDP per capital. what will happen if China have similar GDP per capital like taiwan? I guess Taiwan or south China sea will not be a problem at that time.
what a culture difference. not fake just bad news. my respect to the Chinese people.
This reporter is wanting to cause conflicts, but the man here will not let him, he is going high, while the reporter wants to go low about our President....shame, shame on this reporter.
You can not trust the reporter....he is obviously not so 🤓
it's your president who said those things... the reporter is just repeating what he said. how is that his fault?!
Thank you.
No Its Ivanka that does that.
Emblems4Life yeah an instigating and stacking US.
This Chinese guy speaks better than many American politicians, especially better than Paul Rayan.
Cyrus Dee really? better than Paul Ryan?
Cyrus Dee by the way, this guy is a China spokesman
super articulate love it.
Lol, Brexit.
just wondering has China let in any refugees?
China is graceful talkers and very respectful people.
Funny when a Chinese spokesman that obviously speaks English as a foreign language is far more eloquent and apt at discussing the US's positions than the US president himself.
so, you saw and will see a even greater CHINA.
Geraldito Barba de Chivo language does equate to ones smartness it's just a way to communicate ones smartness
Geraldito Barba de Chivo i
Lu Kang is so eloquent and patient with this ill-informed thug.
Stella P. Lu Kang? From Mortal Kambat
Dude, that one is called Liu Kang
His voice is very nice too and should give pr lessons on how to deal with utter trash.
I totally agree with you. This reporter made American shame.
Engel is a SJW . And his questions were obviously intended to make Prez. Trump look like a fool ! Nope, not on my watch........ How annoyed was Kang with the redundancy of it all...... Yawner... This guy is a " killer " negotiator and spokesman for Jina ! We just witnessed a TKO ..... It will be infinitely different with Rex involved . PEER EE F'N ID
I posted a comment about 4 or 5 days ago saying. Richard its TPP not TTP. And I got about 70 likes. Some mofo removed it! Unbelievable. So I'm gonna repeat it again. Richard its TPP not TTP
Was he almost going to squeeze out "TTP" during the interview? And, there's a barely heardable voice reminding him it's "TTP". Was that from Lu Kang? Seriously what's wrong with NBC...
Alright. Just seconds later, he actually said TPP load after all...
Trump The Puto
Ya, now I thought this comment was hilarious. Sure didnt think I would see the word "Puto" here. However, you do speak truth because Trump is in fact or maybe was a Puto. I dont know about now because there hasnt been any report that he is actually cheating on his wife. However, I still thought this comment was hilarious and not in a bad way.
DJ Rossi Mossi LOL maybe its “ppt”😂
The Chinese foreign minister speaks perfect English .. hat's off to him .. I know how hard it is to learn a foreign language
They very smart they know that in the future super power. The chinese culture is awesome
@@orlandog1979 Agreed.
Whatever
i can barely hear what he said, he speaks fast but not clearly at all !
@@Nicolas-ht4iv Indeed, he does speak quickly, softly and with an accent, but I meant more 'grammatically' ..
They are a very intelligent, and peaceful people, this interviewer just cannot understand that. This man is very educated, and very peacefull. I like him...
EnnesX Do you know what common sense means?
And how many cents did you get paid? People with a different opinion than yours must be evil, huh?
yea, that is the reason he was hired by the chinese government, that is the message they want you to see.
Peaceful people??? Learns the Chinese’s invaded surrounding countries and it killing ad torturing m
Myama’s people.
Female idiotic comment ; she understood nothing.
How could you not love china?
Undim Chinese communism party...
Jason Fan China isnt a communist country anymore if you read more about it
Daggers008 That's what I thought -- until I actually did more research. And their leaders are kissing cousins with the North Koreans. Ooh, they're commies alright. DON'T BE FOOLED.
I didnt say I love China, I would not try our freedom for no other country. We just need to get back to our forefathers dreams for a free America and a Godly America.
donna borum
Our forefathers did not dream of a godly America. Although many were believers their were many deistic ones as well.however, all of them were critical of religion and especially of religion in society having any power of government!
This video sheds a lot of light on the seriousness of US-China relations. Lu Kang presented a strong and firm defense against the NBC reporters' attempts to rile him up. This has been very enlightening for me and I hope more people watch videos like this instead of the typical Western media.
NBC is considered typical "mainstream" media in the West.
don't believe any of American mainstream media. they've lied for years. all you gotta do is look at the history of the cia and the mainstream media.
Sam. He didn't say "mainstream" he said "Western." A 30 minute interview is quite atypical in Western media whether it is considered mainstream or otherwise. Lu Kang always impresses me when he speaks.
神州 Shenzhou here here!
神州 Shenzhou USA media want war at all cause they are run by our dumbocrack party who want war with Russia or China it don't matter they just want war
Damn, chinese people are very peaceful and they take an expert and professional approach to this.
yea they just peacefully execute protestors and dissidents lol
hahaha
ikr wtf
Why don't you move to china and live?
Three years later China wins
Lu Kang has better english vocabulary than half of the american population.
Gian just that day I heard THEY IS and what's ' ain't' ?
Yanks Ng maybe it's 'This is'
Very funny, Thanks making my day!😄
Agreed!!!
@@robertsmithduarte7732 You mean: thanks for making my day. Sheesh
I agree who picked that reporter just trying to get the guy pissed off?Wtf!
Adam Rounds I am sure the news studio sends him on a assignment.thats where reporters get those assignments from.to where they are told to go to get a story, and reports, and use.and to ask those questions.which I.dknt agree to that I.would tell my news studio heck no I refuse to.do.that kind of thing to make me look stupid that's for sure,,,,,
Adam Rounds Disrespectful
He's a major pain in the ass. A Trump puppet of the right wing. I tolerate both conservatives and liberals. I hate radical pigs! Tom cruise, Romney or anyone would be better tan this nut job, even the mail lady.
Adam Rounds Democrats are trouble making SCUMBAGs!!! They only want a world war . Its so obvious.
He's a Soros henchman. He needs to get his ugly face ass kicked. Then sent to China to live the rest of his days.
This was hard to watch..... Richard Engel should report the weather.
This make my day LOL
TheWhat667 - his (Engel's) body language was arrogant and disrespectful as were his words. Chinese people do not "pretend to bow". They actually bow while maintaining eye contact as a show of respect and honor. It is normal behavior in western culture as well; looking someone in the eye while speaking with them. The "man" from NBC was behaving like a child would.
Brad Burrows I would say no. I don't want hear a weatherman say something like: there may have a snowstorm coming, and we might all die.
Brad Burrows ☆☆☆I wouldn't trust him with picking up my garbage!!!!
cloudy days with 0% sunshine 100% chance of idiots raining
I'm from China I don't like war I only like foods
Uleysus Peter That’s my bruh
Uleysus Peter Cant argue on that one!
MA MAN I AGREE WITH THAT 700% HANG TEN BRAH :call_me_hand::skin-tone-5:
Uleysus Peter Yes. Me too three four
chinese people are born pacifists and foodies
Fortunately, China is running by a group of the most smart people in the country like Lu Kang.
EZ Live and this country have the most stupid president with Russian agenda
Flawless victory 😌
@@Capt.sierra Poor you
China has many such government officials. So China is getting stronger
China should be proud on how Lu Kang conducted himself in this interview.
true, but they definitely shouldn't be proud about bullying smaller countries
That might be true but some would argue that our government has a long history of doing the same.
shaun c us should be so proud of bullying Iran Iraq Afghanistan lybia north korea not only “dispute” but the real war cool！
im not even American you imbecile. Im half Australian half filipino living in Australia.
Getting rid of Saddam did nothing but cause more chaos in Iraq... In case you didn't realize - they are still fighting... Doesn't seem like they cared. Same with what happened in Vietnam. That said - only psychotic people want war.
Lu Kang is so professional here... Unlike Richard Engel, who is acting like a little weasel.
lol sure he is.
Darrell Barrett , everyone can see that. Lu's words are much more softer, but shown more weight than Trump's words.
Chinese officials are picked from the cream of the class....
Sero. Watch the video & try hard to understand. This is what diplomacy should be; unlike your Dad Trump, who doesn't care what type of language he spits. He only cares how he is going to enrich himself in the next four years.
The reporter looks irrationally angry the whole time, like you can see the tightness in his face. His blood pressure must be through the roof. Professionalism in western journalism is a thing of the past, if there ever was.
Had to stop eight and a half mins in. The reporter was clearly trying to twist china's words to push forward his own agenda. That's a very bad way todo business and handle foriegn affairs. That reporter should of never been allowed to do such an important interview, makes us look terrible to others.
You live in a free country so no one can stop this reporter. He choose to become one and landed the job. After all he is American and represents you as good as anyone.
I see why African you love the Chinese
What's wrong with this "reporter "??? 😕
Mariana Jimenez I think the president of China is too smart for this dumbass reporter.
Mariana Jimenez this is evidence of how much the media hates Trump
Mariana Jimenez -reporter is liberal moron
He's infected with herpes.
David Gibbard wait but you conservatives are the ones poking china not liberals
My country has so much bias and misconceptions against china
Thanks to the mainstream media.
Mertdawg420 Not to mention Atlantic City, Macau is so much better than Las Vegas I think, everything seems old in Vegas. Personal opinion
At least China is honest about it's censorship, America makes it looks like we hold the truth above all but more often than not its all propaganda and lies.
Ive been to both cities Macau and LV, I personally feel Macau is newer and buildings are more cleaned
As bad as the censorship is, one of the products of their censorship was creating a vacuum for services like facebook and youtube which allowed Chinese companies to fill those voids. However that still brings up the concern the government there will use those companies to survey their populous.
Chinese can’t choose their own leader but US can. But look at this guy vs Trump. lol
hyh 0000000 a Chinese leader or any Chinese citizen speaks bas about their leadership and is hanged by the balls....! here they get a free pass... yes we are different... freedom of speech is something, isn't it?
He is a diplomat not an elected leader
Well think about rank system in games and you'll realize something
@@tarunr5751 Very smart
Obama is so weak yo😂😂😂😂
Seriously, I have never seen this many china-friendly comments under a youtube video, not even under a Chinese speaking video.
Well said
China is a ONE-PARTY DICTATORSHIP. I don't care how nice they sound. They meet disagreement with tanks rolling over marchers. END OF STORY.
That’s because these idiots don’t understand the trade relationship, though through no fault of Chinas, is tilted towards China; we can blame US politicians for this.
aside from this instigating reporter, anyone else notice this dude's name is lu kang? you know just like the mortal kombat character?
LOL
Trevion W. The Chinese communist government chose him for that exact reason.
George Qiao lol!!!
It's just normal name in China...just like Mike / John there are millions with the same name.
+arun raju Its actually Lu Kang,not Liu kang,which in chinese陆慷
I don't want to piss this Chinese guy off. For some reason, this guy's words has weight.
David Wu yes China only wants to keep to itself in foreign policy and develop economically. Trump talks tough on China but he understands there can NEVER be a China
Trump knows there can never be a China USA war
David Wu no nonsense ,serious,firm, smart n straight to the point. future president of china. right man for the job. just look at him,u know u dont fu.... around him.
David Wu I agree. He is the more powerful of the two by far.
raj udaipur well said.
we are countries in the region, and we speak the languages here, we eat similar foods, we share a common development goal for peace, stability and economic developments. There is no such things called American and its allies' interests. Who is your ally? The Philippines? or a communist Vietnam? How hard is to understand we don't need you in this region?
I'm stunned about this detailed knowledge and calm handling of this man. Respect.
I'm just gonna be blunt: I don't like this Richard Engel guy. Looks like all he did was stirring things up----asking hostile questions, using inflammatory words, which are just not constructive to the big picture.
JOSEPH XIAO That's modern day media for ya, bunch of snakes
JOSEPH XIAO well what else should they do kiss Trumps ass like sean Hannity? If it were not for those questions we would not get to know how China actually thinks. A reporters job is to get information on the aubjecta that matter not to please your plotical views. He was just ill informed but given Trumps campaign speeches this subject of interest.
Amen I think you are exactly right.
Swaharma man you can ask great questions without sounding like a 5th grader trying to start a fight at recess. The only good information given is due to Lu pivoting intelligently to provide valid detail. otherwise it's basically "well what do you think about THIS statement Trump said on Twitter/campaign.
i think he asked the right questions it sounds like he is instigating. But those were the exact words that came out of trump mouth.
China doesn't want war against anyone. However, if someone imposes a war on China. China will not be afraid and will be determined to protect itself.
T W yes！！！
T W it's true
But china will bully smaller countries... these islands and reefs are located in the philippines and no where near china
many American land is far from its mailand,so that not belong to US?why you have this funny thought?
shaun c so iraq is not destoryed by usa？ where are those weapons now？these other countries are just chess pawns for usa. they will be useless when usa gets what they want. no big disputes ever happened between china and philipine until obama wants a fight.
Lu Kang was better in this interview than in Mortal Kombat
Gosh, what a minister. He controls everything. I'm learning a lot from this man on how to respond in answering conflicting questions. Thank you.
A report is supposed to inquire and report...not push foreign representatives into speaking out against our leaders. This was not an interview, it was a politically motivated attempt at warring against their own President. The Chinese representative saw this and was wise enough to outwit the so-called reporter.
Jason Singell some type of punishment needs to be formed for this
stop being dumb, a bunch of people have been talking about punishment for reporters pushing their own agendas or lying. Do you want to go against your own amendments?
Satisfaction In A Jar the real question is, do you want to go against your own country? That is just wicked and wrong to try to fuel hate against our President and another leader and try to provoke war, I do not care what anyamendment say, that is still wrong to do something like that. I will not take my freedom and use it to do evil; how would you feel if I took my freedom of speech and started telling people it is OK to murder kids in school and innocent people and that is what we should do but in the same instance say, "I am practicing my amendment right."
He who wants to live let them fight.
I agree, the reporter really pushed and demeaned our president. Let President Trump do the talking. I'm sure the Chinese leader thought, good thing your not from my country. Reporter caused leaders face to turn red.
Lu Kang .. FIGHT! 🇨🇳 🇺🇸

Lu Kang should just use his 1000 kick mortal kombat attack. bam. interviewer done.
Lets be honest, just watching this Chinese politician compared to the politicians here in the States you can see the difference in the level of intelligence. This reporter is so far below this man, its embarrassing for the American media to be represented by him but then again its the American media hahaha Reality star as president ... YIKES!
Lets be honest though. Most Far East Asians or Chinese that I've seen or met, seem very commited when it comes to taking matters into their own hands. It's very rare to see a gullible chinese man and they certainly don't lack for commitment.
He is a reporter not a politician but he is fine journalist.

Thats because politcians in China are required to have advanced degrees.
China is playing Chess. Trump is playing tic-tac-toe.
And Hillary cant find nobody to play Battleship with anymore. FeelsWW3avoidedman
It might be even more ironic to say china is playing go whilst trump plays tic tac toe. Looks really similar but one requires a freaking super computer and the other is just simple.
And, Trump has backed down on his stance with China. Xi wouldn't take his call until Trump reiterated support of One China policy. Well played sir!
HKim0072 we will see about that
HKim0072 Trump acts like he plays tic-tac-toe because mere mortals can't see him playing 7d-chess in different dimensions
He is brilliant, and he speaks excellent English. He studied in the National University of Singapore. I’m a Singaporean, and he makes me feel proud.
China shows class here, snake keeps poking the dragon thirsting for a breath of fire... I love USA and do not want a war, let's not fuel the fire.
It looks like a lot of people have noticed what I noticed about this interview. The middle-school reporter just wants Cheng to talk about hating Trump. There needs to be more mature reporting from the mainstream media these days!
Cheng?
Lu Kang Cheng, I think that's right (maybe not)
No, there needs to be more maturing and truthful answering from the Chinese these days.
Keyda Van yes, all Chinese bear same last name cheng or Chang or ... whatever other vowels sound like Chinese
He forgot to take his Valtrex.
I pray U.S and china can have stable relations.
It is true. And that is a sad thing to see it would be popular now to encourage hate.
donna borum this world can't suffer from war between the US and China
Same thoughts from China. :) Chinese scholars are all talking about how to avoid getting Sino-US relationship into Thucydides trap now. I'm sure most people, whether Chinese or American, definitely don't want to have a war. Some of Trump's speech truly are making Chinese a little bit worried since He's actually fulfilling his campaign promises. I'm sure governments from both sides can solve the problems by negotiation like they always did, as long as Trump is not deliberately making war. Is he?
Rebecca W This right here. 100% mistake then
Wont happen with Trump, he chose Russia over China.
I tip my hat to Mr Lu Kang...His lucidity, clarity and composure in front of the arrogance of this TV interviewer (whether real or played as part of his role as the interviewer) reveals a high degree of statesmanship that has been absent in American political discourse for so long I can't remember it ever existed...
Lu Kang handled this nasty, foolish interview with grace. His manner was as impressive as his clear, sensible answers. I'm so embarrassed to be American anymore.
Raksha38 You and the others with Western names here are pretending to be American etc. You're actually Chinese military hackers on mainland China.
Farmer Bold Not all Americans have the same warped views (USA is the best,perfect,can do no wrong,is the best country in the world....) as you do, so they are more realistic. America could be great, but as it stands you have a lot of work to do "at home", before you go around trying to change other cultures to suit your ways. You have an egomaniac as your president, whom isn't working in your best interest,so obviously your democratic system is majorly flawed, therefore you have no place in forcing your democracy onto unwilling nations by slaughter and force.
@Gord Thor or Yu Wang Li whatever your real name in Chinese. Democracy (or an actual Republic) means freedom not allowed by China's (The People's Republic of China) oppressive and intrusive totalitarianism blocking freedom of speech including use of the full internet (except by communist military hackers required to make trouble in the world), blocking freedom of religion and even meditation (including the meditation Falun Gung that advocates compassion and truthfulness etc.), bullying, militarizing the entire S. China Sea with illegal artificial islands where half the worlds oil goes through and 5.3 TRILLION dollars in trade uses and invading land and maritime rights of other nations driving away others from their ancestral fishing waters, building China's "Silk Road" used to corrupt, invade, and dominate economically and politically etc. other nations across the entire landmass from China to Russia and Scandinavian countries and even across Africa. And this is only the beginning of China's evil plans that will certainly result in a world war probably starting in the South China Sea and vicinity. China's ridiculously arrogant and hard-headed criminal expansion will result in WAR with the United States (including the ending of trade that will decimate China's economy full of old people requiring a lot of care) that will include all of America's allies like the UK, France, Germany and Japan and maybe even friends like India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, and maybe even Vietnam (China took Vietnam's Paracel Islands for militarization and built oil wells near Vietnam's shores and Vietnam's getting the Brahmos missiles from India and other weapons from abroad so as to fight China's bullying intrusion and stealing). I don't know if the Philippines and Taiwan will participate unless the war starts with their involvement. But the entire world save some bad actors like Iran, Syria, and Afghanistan will work for China's downfall until it becomes a true democracy after internal unrest to overthrow the CCP totalitarian government and maybe reunify with Taiwan and stop invading other's waters and lands and resources.
Move to China then.
AGREED!!!
China is very peacful and powerful country in world.i ❤ China'..
youre stupid
Faheem Khan Ask Tibet how Peaceful China is!
brad stevens Have you ever read about what happened in Tibet?
brad stevens Yes I know Tibet was and still is an extremely poor region. However I am pretty sure they were better off before China came in and waged genocide against them.
+Shawn Massey Tibet was not just poor but inhumane before the CCP took over. Idk what you read about what happened in Tibet but try to think critically and don't just take what you read as guaranteed. Seriously on the matter of Tibet our Western ideological bullshit is even worse than red China's propaganda...
From the Emperor era, China always made sure that their ministers were carefully chosen by having government examination.
Alang just like any other country in this world?
@@Tan-fe4wc
I do not approve of China violating Human Rights and executing people illegally.
But please tell me what "Examination" did President Trump (or any American President) pass before becoming President???
And do not say "The Voters elected him"! The Electoral College elected him, since he lost the Popular Vote by about 2 and a half million votes. I agree, it IS Legal and Constitutional for a President to be Elected by the Electoral College.
But you say "any other country in this world" has Examinations to decide who gets into power, so what "Examination" do I take to see if I can be the American President?
I await your answer with bated breath!
Wow what a beautiful display of intelligence by Mr Lu Kang !
It was painful but yet entertaining to see the reporter getting frustrated because he was not getting a bad answer , the reporter facial expressions were very funny , but most of all i was so impressed by Mr Lu's intelligence , beautiful way of expressing him self , he truly knows the art of speaking no once he seemed upset or loosing control . LOVED IT !!!
This reporter is not a reporter but an antagonizer.
Trump is the one who said all of this but it's the reporters fault? You are brainwashed.
You need a dictionary, Barth.
It's pretty clear to me the reporter wants to get a juicy story by getting the man from China to say something stupid. trump is the reason the reporter even went to China, because he could use the stupid words from trump.
I was very weary of the repetitive questions by the reporter. The Chinese foreign minister is a very smart, eloquent, Person. He had no problems defusing the set up questions by the reporter. I am an American so I support the American interest but I can respect the interest of the Chinese as well.
Lu Kang is a spokeperson of the foreign ministry.
concur

✊This alone, could have been the interview.. Thats how you Lead..... America Sssshhhh...
Meanwhile in 'Merica... "Trump's got something to say about Sweden."
so then why does china intervene in taiwans affairs? lmao
james gilmore as Taiwan is a part of china
james gilmore
FYI, If you check the constitution from China(PROC) and Taiwan(ROC), both regimes are still in the middle of the civil war.
Mr. Lu Kang, On behalf of US citizens, we are truly apologize that you had to address stupid questions about an idiot reality TV celebrity who became President. Please don't hold it against us. We are getting rid of him as fast as we can. Thank you, US Citizens.
DemocracyUS 4 more years
wish u good luck from China, we know at least half of US Citizens is not idiot who support Trump.
jj Maybe 8 years, haha.
God Bless you and your nation, too. Better days are coming!
LOL...good luck from China. Actually for people from both countries, peace and collaboration are always preferred than dispute and conflict.
Now I see why USA losts......
You hear Russia, Iran, China, all theses country's speak, it's with respect.
This guy is really TRYING to drag this minister into an emotional response.
What kind of interview is this?
As a Chinese student studying in the U.S., I'm glad that Mr. Lu Kang had a firm stance on the behalf of China AND at the same time spoke no ill of Trump and America. But this reporter...u gotta do a better job at asking questions. Also, thanks for all the people here watching this video and trying to understand what relationship that China and U.S. could have.
Yurui Tong 尽量少说话，读了书，智商变高，情商变低
Yes, the corrupt USA media sent this guy to Beijing for this journalistic scare tactic to try to misrepresent Americans. Check out the mannerisms and strange sores on his mouth! He's not even a professional, ask yourself why would they send this combative dude! Where are we now a year later?
The interviewer seemed knowing nothing, just kept asking stupid questions
Confucius's teaching has taught Lu Kang well.
Eugene Chin
Is this news person for real!!!!!
david burney. I know!!!!!😞
david burney NBC shows its bias which is sad and dangerous to try to negatively influence Sino US relations.
True, this news reporter trying to create a war.
Exactly. He is really pushing!
FBI Spot on, mate.
Big respect for Mr Kang's high level of knowlege, articulation & diplomatic skills here. [Currently missing in Trump.]
Judy Westbrook Actually he is Mr Lu…
I am Chinese, we want peace! Please be discipline US!
Excellent interview! You always demonstrated an impressive diplomatic talent. It's nice to follow your career. I have good memories of our time as UN Disarmament fellows in Geneva and New York.
Felix Maradiaga u absolutely right
What is really surprising about this interview is:
1) it was conducted with a Chinese official (very rare)
2) it was conducted in English and not Chinese (extremely rare)
3) the Chinese official can articulate their position in English very well !
fact: China has more English User than India......
twenli
twenlil 4. We sent an instigator and a moron with herpes to interview hin.
4) Successfully and carefully managed every leading question shot out of Richard's mouth.
Lu Kang is his name?
This guy is too smart
Yes, it is his name.
and i want to say that there r thousands of officer like Lu Kang in China
u mean official?
Jim C, Obviously, China is trying to rake us over. They want U.S. concessions in business, to annex North Korea as their permanent bulldog, and force us out of the South China Seas which is international waters. There is a lot of propaganda. Don't side with China and North Korea. Kim Jong-un would be doing ballistic missile and nuclear tests regardless of anything Trump has said. They have threatened us over and over again for decades.
LU KANG YING YA
Where is the part when the Chinese guy turns into a dragon and bites the reporter in half? By the way, that's a Mortal Kombat reference. For those of you who don't know. LOL
其实中国人不用自卑，根本不用在意西方人怎么想。因为，所谓来自西方文明世界的很多评论不也是那么弱智嘛，恕我直言。
一点儿都不自卑，看到老外为我们的外交官喝彩实在是欣慰加自豪
hahahaah
仔细看看这里面的评论，真的是不同的国度，同样的傻逼，这个世界上果然大部分人都是差不多的傻逼
台湾不是中国
james gilmore
我支持你的說法，台灣人應該獨立，我們應該盡快向蔡總統請願進行獨立公投！（为统一台湾尽一份绵薄之力）
The Chinese are very smart folks. We need to be careful
He Edward Chinese politics doesn't matter! The Chinese are the smartest people their is on earth next to the Egyptians, Arabs, and the Europeans. When it comes to the numbers the Chinese are the best at world chess. War is the only thing left.
Atreyu Tower Chinese cherish peace very much. We are educated to protect the peace of the world since we were children. Also, we are very brave too. I respect American very much, because they treat me very well when I studied in America. It is not a zero game in this world, big countries can 1+1>2. I hope both countries contribute lots to this world, such as technology.
Jingjing Gao I appreciate that
Atreyu Tower run and hide in the den
Jingjing Gao Chinese student? I am really agree with you . We should learn more from US instead against them. We have no condition to make a war between US and China breaking the peace, but there are always some people make the "US empire" beside their mouth. Naive!
Richard Engel is obtuse. He keeps trying to provoke Mr. Kang. Apparently, he cannot tell when he is talking to a grownup. He had a good opportunity to explore international relations with this clearly intelligent and thoughtful official, but he just continued to bring up campaign rhetoric and tweets, even after Mr. Kang made it clear to him that these were not considered serious concerns. He kept asking the same questions over and over when he had already received clear answers. Honestly, Trump's immaturity is embarrassing enough for our nation. Do our Foreign Correspondents have to extend that impression?
Suzanne Bennett Suzanne, your comment says beautifully what I thought of this inflammatory interview! You're a great writer.
Thank you Lu Kang, outstanding interview and you provided me with a new perspective.
中国外交部就是这么的专业和充满智慧:]
I admire how Lu Kang can choose his words precisely without using aggressive words. As we clearly see this reporter is trying to agitate conflict and war monger.
China is shinny outwardly and rotten inside. Democracy (or an actual Republic) means freedom not allowed by China's (The People's Republic of China) oppressive and intrusive totalitarianism blocking freedom of speech including use of the full internet (except by communist military hackers required to make trouble in the world), blocking free media, freedom of religion and even meditation (including the meditation Falun Gung that advocates compassion and truthfulness etc.), bullying all neighboring nations, militarizing the entire S. China Sea with illegal artificial islands where yearly half the worlds oil trade goes through and 5.3 TRILLION dollars in trade, and invading land and maritime rights of other nations driving away others from their ancestral fishing waters such as the Philippines, building China's "Silk Road" using $10's of billions to blackmail and corrupt officials, invade, and dominate economically and politically etc. other nations across the entire landmass from China to Myanmar (Burma) extending to Russia and Scandinavian countries and to Napal and even across Africa and already starting in South America offering $10's of billions to nations blackmailing and corrupting politicians and officials and others exactly like drug cartels and other organized criminal organizations. And this is only the beginning of China's evil plans that will certainly result in a world war probably starting in the South China Sea and vicinity. China's ridiculously arrogant and hard-headed criminal expansion will result in WAR with the United States (including the ending of trade that will decimate China's economy full of old people requiring a lot of care) that will include all of America's allies like the UK, France, Germany and Japan and maybe even friends like India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, and maybe even Vietnam (China took Vietnam's Paracel Islands for militarization and built oil wells near Vietnam's shores and Vietnam's getting the Brahmos missiles from India and other weapons from abroad so as to fight China's bullying intrusion and stealing). I don't know if the Philippines and Taiwan will participate unless the war starts with their involvement. But the entire world save some bad actors like Iran, Syria, and Afghanistan will work for China's downfall until it becomes a true democracy after internal unrest to overthrow the CCP totalitarian government and maybe reunify with Taiwan and stop invading other's waters and lands and resources.
I am Chinese. I understand Chinese personality, we don't want to fight or argue with anyone. US media is always trying create turbulence in China US relationship. I am a business man also involved in manufacturing . I understand that Trump wants more jobs for USA, however, many of the jobs will never go back to USA, no matter what you do. Even china has to give away a lot of manufacturing business to other countries like Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia who have lower labour cost. But the jobs will never go back to USA. USA needs to focus on what they are good at like innovation, IT, tourism, finance etc. Never manufacturing.
Jing Hu - no America needs to get rid of all the communist who have infiltrated our Constitutional Republic, and go back to our roots. There is a reason the United States was best country in the world, of which manufacturing played a part.
There is a reason everything manufactured in China sucks.
Is not that you don't like just because you're living under control of the communists regime
As an American I’m almost entitled to comment here just to show we’re not all insane and can’t spell. The USA has, since then, brought back many jobs for manufacturing but not after much damage, and getting rid of an incompetent, joke of a president in 2020. However, I can’t say if our relations with the Chinese is better or worse since then, feels like a completely different world from when this interview was posted.
Mr Lu Kang is a brilliant diplomat! He handled the questions very well.
Although there is a lot of negitive voice about goverment in China, it's clear that the party have never let their people down while facing foreigners.
Mr. Lu Kang did an amazing job explaining China's official views. He made it clear that some issues can be negotiated while others are not for negotiation. His responses had references, facts and numbers, which made it more convincing. One thing I don't understand on the US part. Now Mr Trump is not happy about some of the deals and claimed them so-called "one side trade". Weren't these deals signed by both sides after long negotiations? If these are really "one-side trade", he should points his fingers to the prior US administration, not the Chinese.
👍👍👍
I clicked the dislike button because I do not like the interviewer and his tactics. However, I DO approve of the Chinese individual who is being interviewed. He seems to be a wise and intelligent man.
Mariea Gill second that. I found him very poised. Charming
glad that your clear explanation,and being objective.
Mariea Gill Atreyu Tower Chinese cherish peace very much. We are educated to protect the peace of the world since we were children. Also, we are very brave too.

if given the opportunity.. i would like to thank china for loaning us 50billion dollars for infrastructure development. xie xie.. even the usa was not able to do this feat. america guves money to foreign leaders who are proven as corrupt therefore not really helping anyone. i dont know why they do that.
im chinese and i really want china and US able to work better together
Just like Trump said, the Chinese always put their best people in important positions. Mr. Lu Kang is very impressive and presents his country very well.
No he represents the Chinese Communist Party very well. He doesn't represent the Chinese nation as the Chinese people, who incidentally make up the Chinese nation, have absolutely no say whatsoever in what this person is saying. They have no say at all in what their government says or does as they aren't allowed to elect their own government.
I would actually enjoy better U.S.-China relations. It would make me a lot less fearful of a war, that would eventually involve me, or my children. Lu Kang seems like a very intelligent man, and I hope Trump helps the relations.
Interviewee: "Look at what Trump has tweeted."
Lu Kang: *rolls eyes* "Oh here we go..."
The Chinese minister sounds so elegant and dignified...the fake reporter just wants he to scream and shout and say something out of line.
Gameboy Hotline, It is "elegant propaganda."
robert retka
Chinese are great at deception. In the end it is all about gaining more of everything for China.
robert retka, you are absolute right!
Chinese and other peoples used the now so called South China Sea etc. thousands of years before there were Chinese, East Africans used the entire areas and seas. And later Mongolia conquered most of China all the way to the sea. Just because a Chinese visited or traveled or built a dwelling in a place does not mean that China owns it all.
That guy being interviewed is just a puppet not proof of anything.
PEACE means China's absolute DOMINATION. That's why Chinese rep's keep saying they want peace. There is PEACE when China's foot is on your throat choking you down into submission as they steal all that you have.
CHINA IS TAKING OVER everything and claiming it their own security zone from seas up to the shore-lines of other nations and all oil-gas and fishing rights everywhere from the South China Sea, East China Sea, Yellow Sea and moving into the Indian Ocean and into Africa, the Pacific Ocean and beyond. All, all, all the other nations in the region are preparing for war against China including India. And China demands and warns the United States of America to stay away as China's affairs are between China and the individual other nations. That just means that China wants to be in a position to BULLY AND INTIMIDATE the weaker nation without America helping them ... TRICKY, TRICKY, TRICKY CHINA. Double-talking propaganda by slick China to think their twisted talking and warnings if fooling and tricking the entire world. Makes me feel sickened enough to throw up.
WHEN IS AMERICA GOING TO GROW SOME BALLS AND STAND UP TO CHINA AND KICK CHINA OUT OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA AND THE OTHER PLACES IN A COALITION WITH ALL, ALL, ALL THE OTHER NATIONS ANGRY WITH CHINA AND CHINA'S ILLEGAL EXPANSION. GROW SOME BALLS AND STOP BEING A LITTLE GIRL REGARDING CHINA'S BULLYING!!!!
TO STOP CHINA means not a trade war but to STOP ALL TRADE with China and grow some balls and take military action to destroy all of China's illegal artificial islands used to militarized the South China Sea with missiles, radars and runways etc. This must be done by the U.S. alone or the U.S. in a coalition with most or all the other nations ANGRY against China. Why, oh why do people just wait and wait allow the great enemy to get stronger and stronger? A world DOMINATED by the totalitarian oppressive and intrusive communist nation of China is worse than a nightmare, because you can wake up from a dream sooner or later.
@@farmerbold1144 How much the US government pays you? I wanna know since I need a quick buck or two
This reporter has Spratly islands hanging off the side of his mouth
Sad how all the makeup powers of NBC still couldn't hide his herpes.
hahahahahahahahahahhahahaha i made my roommate cry when i pointed that out :'DDDDD
Wow he is calmly letting Lord Dampnuts know, China is not playing around.
Yes the reporter were annoying with the same questions
Within 3 minutes, I am far more impressed with this man's sense of diplomacy and decorum than anything that Trump has shown.
Trump just continues to beak off about everything that he knows nothing about, causing massive damage in his wake.
I hope America finally realizes that Trump will only enrich himself and set American values behind for another 50 years.
Yes, Even if he really has made US richer, the soft power of US has lost already. Think about it.
Smart man...he doesn't allow Richard Engel to bate him or take the things he says out of context. Richard will take things out of context anyway, because that is what NBC does.
It's like speaking to someone who is not listening....be nice to hear him say exactly that. "Richard you need to listen to me", please don't waste my time anymore if you are going to repeat the same questions and then not listen to the answers".......hahahah
Lulu Leman Well put. I just want to see him get slapped awake.
Lu Kang wins
Mr Lu Kang responses excellent based on solid facts. Nice to watch. Very impressive.
Would like to see this interview done in Mandarin....
He speaks better english than Trump
