Fox's Peter Doocy Reports on Heated And Physical Clashes' Between Trump's Secret Service and Chinese Police
"Xi told President Trump that he is not selling weapons to Iran on the heels of this Washington Post report suggesting the Chinese are using the Iran war to undermine the U.S. on the world stage, Doocy said. He added that the two leaders have had some very frank conversations about Taiwan as well as Iran."
"there have been some heated and physical clashes between the Secret Service and the Chinese police at basically the backdoors of these events, including one very physical standoff where a Secret Service officer was being prevented from taking his weapon in as part of the protective detail, but things have all been ironed out and as far as we know, the schedule has not been changed because of that"
"Chinese officials refused to admit a Secret Service agent accompanying the presidential press pool into the secure area because the agent was carrying a firearm standard practice for the protective agency, The Post reported. The Chinese version of a Mexican standoff ensued, with the press pool and American delegation refusing to move forward without the agent and Beijing officials determined to take his sidearm."
"After a 30-minute delay and many arguments, another Secret Service agent who had already been cleared to proceed was summoned to escort reporters inside while the first agent stayed behind, the report said. Earlier, The Post reported that an aggressive Chinese press pack charged into Trump's morning bilateral meeting with Xi, knocking down and then stepping on a White House advance team member."
Tensions arose during President Donald Trump’s visit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, involving the U.S. Secret Service and Chinese police near event access points. Xi told Trump that China is not selling weapons to Iran, following reporting that China may use the Iran conflict to undermine the United States internationally. Both leaders also had direct conversations about Taiwan and Iran. Physical incidents included a standoff at the Temple of Heaven where Chinese officials refused to allow a Secret Service agent carrying a firearm into a secure area. After delays and arguments, another cleared agent escorted reporters inside while the first agent remained behind. Earlier, an aggressive Chinese press group charged into a morning bilateral meeting, knocking down and stepping on a White House advance team member, leaving the aide bruised and shaken.
