Indonesia: A very heated conversation between Chinese President Xi Jinping and the Canadian Prime Minister on the sidelines of the G-20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia has been recorded on camera. Usually, such conversations are rarely seen in diplomacy.

Xi, in his meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, expressed displeasure that the conversation in his earlier meeting was leaked to the media

The incident took place in front of television cameras, which showed Xi Jinping angry and objecting to Trudeau that whatever conversations he had had in earlier meetings were leaked to the media.

On Wednesday, the Chinese president told Trudeau through a translator on the sidelines of the closing session of the G20 meeting, “What we discuss is leaked to the newspaper. “This is not the way of communicating. If there is seriousness, we can have a good conversation. Otherwise it will be difficult.” Jinping said this in Chinese, which was translated into English by his official interpreter told to Trudeau.

Trudeau interrupted the translator, saying, “We believe in free, open and clear dialogue and that is what we will continue to do. We will continue to work together constructively, but there will be things on which we will disagree.”

After Trudeau’s response, Xi maintained his conduct of a smiling but disappointed headmaster, saying, “It’s great but first we create the conditions.”

Asked about his talks with Xi, Trudeau said, “Not every conversation is going to be easy, but it’s very important that we stand up for things that are important to canadians.”

Trudeau spoke with Xi on Tuesday and his office said Trudeau had raised concerns about Chinese interference in Canada’s elections.

According to reports quoting a government source, Trudeau had raised the issue of Ukraine, North Korea and climate change in his ten-minute conversation. This conversation was leaked to the media and this disgruntled Xi Jinping.
