Xi Gifts President Lee a Chinese Made Smartphone
A smartphone is kind of a weird gift to give considering the security threat it poses which Lee made fun of:
President Lee Jae Myung has received a set of Xiaomi smartphones and traditional Chinese calligraphy tools from Chinese President Xi Jinping following their first summit talks, as the two leaders shared a lighthearted exchange about communication security.
As the two sides exchanged their gifts on Saturday, Xi presented Lee with two smartphones made by Chinese tech giant Xiaomi, noting that the displays on the phones are Korean-made.
“Is the line secure?” Lee quipped. Xi replied through an interpreter, “You can check if there is a backdoor.”

Xi gave consumer electronics as a gift? Old news.
Obama did the same thing to Queen Elizabeth but he included pictures of himself and videos of his speeches.
Like so many things Obama did, that is a level of class that Xi simply cannot achieve.
With special level spyware, Lee no longer has to report in for a psychological tune up like Raymond Shaw in the Manchurian Candidate
