Pompeo's comments about the Tiananmen Square crackdown in Beijing 30 years ago prompted a sharp response from China
China’s government lashed out Tuesday at Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for commemorating the “heroic” protests leading to the violent crackdown at Beijing’s Tiananmen Square in 1989, warning that its critics would “end up in the ash heap of history.”
The statement by the Chinese embassy in Washington came after Mr. Pompeo marked the 30th anniversary of the massacre and called for a full accounting of those killed when security forces moved against demonstrators.
