Chinese Ambassadors

Fu Ying is the Chinese ambassador to the UK. She embodies Chinese "soft diplomacy." She is well-spoken and well-written.

In contrast, Sha ZuKang is currently head of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, and he is known for being more tough and blunt. Word on the street is that when he first met the UN ambassador of Great Britain in Geneva, the ambassador told Sha that he was concerned about the human right records of China. Sha snapped at him by saying "your face reminds me of Opium War." HAHAHAHA

In a BBC interview in 2006, he told the US to "shut up" regarding criticism on arms spending of China, noting that U.S. arms expenditure is half of the total arms expenditure of the whole world.
