A former leader of the Tiananmen Square protests in China has lashed out at US presidential hopeful Donald Trump, whom he dubbed a “privileged comeback king”, and warned America is at risk of abandoning its cherished freedoms.
Wuer Kaixi said he was speaking on behalf of Chinese democracy dissidents everywhere in condemning the provocative property magnate, who was criticised last week after describing the 1989 pro-democracy demonstrations in Beijing and subsequent crackdown as a “riot”.
“Speaking personally, after 27 years in exile from that ‘riot’... I think I can speak for all fellow exiled and imprisoned Chinese in condemning Trump,” Wuer wrote in a commentary posted on his official Facebook page.
