Panda diplomacy is over<\/a> and it\u2019s one more ding in the relationship with China.<\/p>\n

All three of the Smithsonian National Zoo\u2019s pandas will return to China by December 7, including the young male cub Xiao Qi Ji, who was born in Washington, D.C.\u00a0You can visit the pandas in timed intervals as the Smithsonian hosts a Panda Palooza from Sep. 23 to Oct. 1.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adult panda bears Mei Xiang and Tian Tian have been here on lease to the National Zoo<\/a> since 2000.\u00a0The lease was renewed several times, but now, it\u2019s goodbye.<\/p>\n

Certainly, we wish the pandas well, but it is obvious American friendship does not matter to Xi Jinping<\/a>.\u00a0China\u2019s dictator for life is too busy building new nuclear weapons, assaulting the dollar with his BRICS buddies and ordering up combat air formations near Taiwan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

GIANT PANDAS TO LEAVE SMITHSONIAN’S NATIONAL ZOO IN WASHINGTON, DC, IN DECEMBER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Yanking the pandas from Washington is one more step in Xi Jinping\u2019s dream of a new world order.\u00a0And having hooked us on a massive trade deficit, filled our universities with 295,000 students of Communist party elite, bought up farmland, monopolized solar panel production and lured businesses with mirages of profits\u2026they don\u2019t need to give us Panda bears anymore.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pandas have always been political. Ling Ling and Hsing Hsing arrived in 1972 as part of the Nixon thaw with China. Thus began Panda Diplomacy and a campaign to transform China\u2019s image.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 1972, Communist China <\/a>was regarded as a secretive Red menace responsible for killing Americans in the Korean War and starving between 15 and 55 million of its own people during dictator Mao Tse-Tung\u2019s Great Leap Forward. Mao had once killed off songbirds in a bid to increase agricultural production.\u00a0<\/p>\n

China needed a new approach and the adorable black and white puff ball bears were great ambassadors. Over the years, up to 75 million people visited the pandas just at Washington\u2019s National Zoo. On my trip to China in the 1990s, I brought home a panda quilt.<\/p>\n

By 2001, Western governments agreed to give China a chance to grow rich and improve its behavior by joining the World Trade Organization<\/a> in 2001. You know the rest of the story. The trade deficit hit an appalling $418 billion in 2018 and an estimated 3.7 million manufacturing jobs were lost to China.<\/p>\n

Face it, the Chinese Communist Party of 2023 <\/a>does not care if Americans will miss the pandas.\u00a0Nor do they care about supporting Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine, polluting the planet with new coal-fired power plants or undermining the dollar with oil and bilateral trade in yuan. Of course, they didn\u2019t care about releasing COVID.\u00a0<\/p>\n

XI JINPING TRIGGERS HEALTH SPECULATION AFTER MYSTERIOUSLY SKIPPING KEY SPEECH<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In 1982, the panda program changed from gift to leasing with China charging up to $1 million<\/a> per panda.\u00a0Notice most of the panda contracts were set up over a decade ago to expire right about now. That\u2019s central planning for you.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To be fair, China has also opened a 2.2 million panda nature reserve the size of New Jersey<\/a>, where about 60% of pandas already live. Alas, taking back the pandas is also part of China\u2019s wider plan to do climate policy their way. China says the panda population grew from 1114 in the 1980s to 1864 in 2014, an increase which got pandas off the endangered species list as of 2016. That\u2019s good news of course, as young pandas weigh only about 150 grams at birth and are notoriously difficult to rear.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But for comparison, American bald eagles <\/a>hit rock bottom in 1963 with only 417 nesting pairs They rebounded to 10,000 nesting pairs in 2007 when bald eagles moved off the endangered species list and reached 71,400 nesting pairs in 2016. That\u2019s conservation, American-style.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pandas did rotate back to China for breeding or lifestyle reasons, but this is different. China has pulled the pandas from San Diego, Edinburgh, Berlin, and Malaysia, to name a few.\u00a0<\/p>\n

China\u2019s official story<\/a> is that “loaning pandas nowadays is more than \u2018diplomacy\u2019 or just bringing in more visitors into zoos,” explained China\u2019s mouthpiece Global Times back on Mar. 2, 2023. Now “the key lies in friendly and close people-to-people exchanges.”<\/p>\n

Guess who is keeping their pandas?\u00a0Moscow.\u00a0“The first giant panda cub in Russia\u2019s history <\/a>was born in the Moscow Zoo!” screamed China\u2019s state-run People\u2019s Daily on Sep. 1.<\/p>\n

Doha, Qatar also opened a new panda facility in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Smithsonian National Zoo Director and panda expert Dr. Brandie Smith<\/a> insists the pandas are not a political conversation. “My dream is that giant pandas will return to the National Zoo sometime in the near future,” Smith told NBC4 Washington on Sep. 9.<\/p>\n

The way I see it, a nation that won\u2019t lease us panda bears probably won\u2019t meet United Nations climate goals<\/a>, either.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Go ahead, Xi Jinping, prove me wrong. Lease back more pandas to the National Zoo.\u00a0<\/p>\n
