Chen Guangcheng: escaped dissident says vote Trump to stop Chinese ‘aggression’
Addressing Republican convention, blind activist urges Americans to help president stand up to ‘tyranny’ of Communist party
The blind Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng, known for his harrowing escape from Chinese house arrest in 2012, has called on US citizens to vote for Donald Trump for the “sake of the world”.
Speaking at the largely online Republican convention on Wednesday, Chen called the Chinese Communist party (CCP) an “enemy of humanity” and said Trump had led a coalition of other democracies to “stop CCP aggression”.
