Hong Kong CNN —Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ running mate has a decades-long connection with China.
“I remember waking up and seeing the news on June 4 that the unthinkable had happened,” Walz told Voice of America in an interview in 2014.
The newlyweds spent their honeymoon taking students on two-week tours in China for sightseeing and classes on culture, education and history.
In Chinese nationalist circles, which have an outsized voice on policy debates in China, there are no rosy illusions about Walz.
The hashtag “Harris’ VP pick once taught in China” racked up 15 million views on microblogging site Weibo.
