BEIJING - China on Friday called retired soccer star Hao Haidong’s remarks “absurd” after the celebrated player called for the ouster of the ruling Communist Party in a video released on Thursday, the 31st anniversary of the Tiananmen Square crackdown on pro-democracy protesters.
“To these absurd statements, to this farce, I don’t have any interest in commenting,” foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said at a regular briefing, when asked to comment on Hao’s call for a “New Federal State of China” “I think the Chinese people should not be trampled upon by the Chinese Communist Party any more. I think this Communist Party should be kicked out of humanity. This is the conclusion I reached after 50 years of living,” he says in the video.
It is extremely rare for high-profile Chinese citizens to openly criticise the government, given China’s hard line on dissent.On Wednesday, Guo and Bannon livestreamed from a boat in New York Harbor, where a group of propeller planes trailed banners that read “New Federal State of China”.
