China is proud of you. A well-versed educated man (as many millions Chinese) who explained efficiently about China. The idiots should watch this 847 Dun Dun Dun Dun Dun Dun 4 weeks ago The west is everything it accuses China of being except 10 times worse. The hypocrisy of the west and it’s political cronies is also shocking 416 Laura McConney Laura McConney 4 weeks ago Thank you Mr Li, this is the truth about China that our government has hidden from the people of America. My eyes are open and I hope more people will learn these truths about our failures to adapt. 264 comingviking comingviking 4 weeks ago I like Eric Li's take on democracy. Is it democracy when the people are taken care of and a better life is delivered, or is it democracy when you can vote, and the politicians you elect abandon you and fail to deliver on their promises? Because ultimately, people don't want to vote per se, they want job security, food on the table and a better life for their young. 217 Beautiful pak pk Beautiful pak pk 4 weeks ago Can RT interview this guy more often?

Humanity celebrates China's achievement. 210 old fan old fan 4 weeks ago And thank you RT for bringing Americans this interview with Eric Li. 259 Anna Kryzilinski Anna Kryzilinski 4 weeks ago Excellent discussion. China has suffered immeasurably at the hands of the West from the opium wars to the removal of silver from their monetary system. Yes, monetary silver. Now China has the world's largest reserves of gold; ready to trade with the world; leaving the US dollar to self-destruction. Humiliated and raped for centuries, first by Britain in pursuit of Empire; then the United States of America as an extension of the Anglo-American quest to dominate the world. The era of the American Century is over. 547 F Liu F Liu 4 weeks ago The West promotes individualism and ''differences'' but it would not allow China to prosper on its own systems and ideology, it wants the whole world to adopt to the Western systems when it is clearly failing. China doesn't want this kind of ideology and values, the West should stop preaching and supressing China because it is futile. 220 4gimmi 4gimmi 4 weeks ago The guest is so true about China achievements! It’s amazing how fast and peaceful they raised millions of their people out of poverty! And lifted many poor African and Asian countries without bombing anyone! 273 Henry D Ginn Henry D Ginn 4 weeks ago (edited) Great interview by RT again. We need more real news like RT in today’s world 306 Peter Williams Peter Williams 3 weeks ago Base on my personal experience in interacting with the Chinese inside China, I have to say, the Chinese in general know so much more about the US and the world than Americans know about other countries, especially information regarding China. There is absolutely no way for Americans to know the real pictures of what is really happening in China because 98% the news and information Americans get from their media are totally disinformation and double standard. No wonder, 98% Americans would feel shocked by what they witnessed in person when they went to China for the first time. 98% of the time they will have pleasant surprise and some are angry about the lies they heard and learned from their American media. 233 Exar Kun Exar Kun 4 weeks ago Excellent interview.
