BEIJING, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) – Li Keqiang, member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the 17th, 18th and 19th Communist Party of China central committees and former premier, passed away on Friday in Shanghai.
Li recently had a rest in Shanghai. On Oct. 26, Li had a sudden heart attack and passed away at 00:10 on Oct. 27 after all rescue measures failed. He died at the age of 68.
The obituary will be issued later.
RIP
How long until the Economist runs a story saying Xi used his heart attack gun on him?
Reuters, NYT, NPR etc. are all using the opportunity to complain about Xi of course, but no conspiracy theories yet. I went with the People’s Daily article cause it doesn’t use his death as an excuse to write an opinion piece. Also it’s straight from the source.
His heart attack gun, fires in bursts If he shoots ya, it’s gonna hurt
A Typical Xi workday
