Secretary of State Mike Pompeo “can no longer play the role of a top US diplomat,” Global Times editor Hu Xijin tweeted, declaring the former spook “has become the most troublesome US official for China.”
“To China, he is still a CIA director who takes over the State Department,” Hu’s tweet, posted on Monday, concluded. The Global Times editor’s official “cancellation” of Pompeo comes as the US diplomat is meeting with the leaders of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to shore up regional opposition to Iran.
