Popular Post webfact Posted November 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2022 Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha extends his hand to Chinese President Xi Jinping who did not reciprocate. The Thai headline says, “Only avoiding Covid.”. Photo: Sanook.com by TNR Staff GOVERNMENT spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri stepped in to explain that Chinese President Xi Jinping did not shake hands with Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha because he is avoiding doing so as part of strict Chinese Covid measures, Sanook.com said Friday afternoon (Nov. 18). Chinese officials had added that Xi is also avoiding handing over gifts and is skipping small meetings at the Apec summit for this very reason. The Thai online world is astir on this missed handshake with a video clip circulating showing Prayut extending his hand to Xi who walked ahead. However the Chinese leader did shake hands with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida when they held a meeting on the sidelines of the Apec summit Thursday (Nov. 17).

Thai Government spokesman just trying to save face and anyone who believes his words is a moron. Yes, I saw that Xi was speaking to Trudeau via a translator and giving a right 'talking to' for leaking the details of their previous meeting, but he shook his hand after the meeting. This is a snub. Likely because Xi is scared like a child of COVID and of course Prayuth was recently in touch with Hun Sen so the risk would be elevated but I prefer to think it's a snub all the same ???? 12 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
