Chinese 'love' Trump's Mandarin-speaking granddaughter
"She's too cute!" users gushed. "Let's hope that she marries into a Chinese family."
WASHINGTON: (AFP) - While media coverage of Donald Trump s meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping Thursday focused on trade and North Korea, it was the wide-eyed crooning of the US leader s granddaughter that stole Chinese netizens hearts.
In a video that Trump showed Xi during their stroll through the historic Forbidden City Wednesday, his granddaughter, Arabella Kushner, greets "Grandpa Xi and Grandma Peng (Liyuan)" with several Mandarin ballads and a recitation of ancient Chinese poetry.
China s Xinhua state news agency, which circulated the clip widely on social media, reported that Xi said the six-year-old girl s Mandarin skills deserved an "A+".
